I have not gotten to the intake yet. The motor won't run with out spark. So, I installed an alternator and some spark plug wires.

Great build sir. Engine detail is particularly nice. Styrene is fun. If I had any space left under my hood, I'd definitely do up a motor. Well done!

Now in real Toyota fashion you need to add an oil leak from the half moon under the valve cover
