I've got a rocky with a dead engine too. What transmission do you plan on using?

I am going to use a Toyota G52 transmission (found behind the 22R engines in the mid 80s). It is a little on the long side, plus the shifters aren't quite right but I think I can make it work. Stay tuned ;)

Thanks! More videos are in the pipeline to come out soon. The Rocky is awaiting parts (like all projects seem to eventually). Greetings from Wyoming.

Hey buddy. The "Rocky" you have there is more commonly known to the rest of the world as a "Feroza". They come with the 1.6L HD engine which is the same as the engine in the Applause and Charade. The Daihatsu "Rocky" the rest of the world got is bigger and has a 2.8L diesel (usually turbo). The engine you bought it with is the factory engine.

Thanks! Yeah, Daihatsu names are confusing. I call it a Rocky when I'm not thinking about it because that's what it says on the side. I think they are the Feroza in South America and the Sportrak in the UK. The HD engine in the US came in two versions. One for the Rocky which was 1.6L, and the one for the Charade which had a slightly shorter block and a slightly shorter stroke and was 1.3l. As far as I can tell, everything else was the same. I don't think the Charade was ever offered in the US with the 1.6L HD engine, I only know of a 1L 3 cylinder and a 1.6L. At least stateside, the HD engines seem to blow head gaskets every 100k miles I measured the displacement of the engine I bought it with and it was 1.3L

@@lewishein5731 Yep, you're 100% correct. You've obviously done your research. It was also Feroza in Australia and many parts of Europe too. The head gasket issue is usually caused due to over heating. I have a supercharged feroza and been a bit of a fan for a few years, if I can help with anything drop me a line. I also have a Fez with a Toyota 1JZ turbo in it but I'm about to scrap it as not viable (money pit). Check my chanel for both.

The 22R seems to be a not too difficult swap. Stay tuned ;)

My day job (that pays for all these projects) has been keeping me on the jump lately! Also it's been cold and snowy for what feels like forever. Spring is allegedly around the corner though and hopefully I get a break someday :)
