Just PM a Moderator and they will move it for you. They would rather you do that then start a new thread.

I rebuilt a motor just like yours only it came out of an 83 Celica. I am not sure if the earlier 22rs came with dome top pistons or not. Do you know for sure?

 

I know the earlier models had the raised ring because the block is a hair taller I wanna say 81 to 83 or 84 then they had the flat top
