Incendiarism Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Hi there hoping someone could help me out here, I have a 4age engine (supposedly a rally engine) with a k50 gearbox. what sort of things do I need to get this running and what sort of starter motor, we were given a 4age starter but it doesn't fit. Also if anyone knows somewhere I could take this to get it all up and running to get it all certed that would be great as unfortunately I have no decent time to get it going myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plox Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Need a starter that's from a k50 box I believe. Need a bit more info around the cert. Assuming your doing a 4age swap into something that use to have a smaller engine? Any performance shop would do a engine swap and get running but a lot of $$$$ I would think, and you would still need to organize cert etc. Edit: Just remembered that starter motors off 3au engines should fit (k50 box) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
77magnum13hundy Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 As you probably been already told, the K50 box wont handle much of a hiding from the 4age, maybe to save time look around for a t50, yes they are over priced and rare to find but in comparison to a k50 they will handle more jandle. Also getting a bell housing made up for a W series box is the other option... Depending on what its going in anyways. When i got my 4age i was looking for k50 boxes becos im a cheap arse and wanted to just get rolling. Took some advise from some of the dudes on here and got a gbox and bellhousing combo for 680 which was kinda like saying the bellhousing was 5 hundred and the gearbox 180, (22 spline T50). If you go for a W series and get a W to A housing made up your looking at a bit more like a grand... anyways just my 2c 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mutiny Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 as above, k starter motor, keep in mind if you go t50 you need to convert to hydraulic clutch etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ae85 fiend Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I've got a k50 + starter + 4age... but won't split as i've got no room at dads and don't need any 4age stuff anymore. PM and i'll give you a number to txt if you'd like, not in the country at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
