I nor anyone here can intelligently answer that question. None of us are Toyota engineers. I can tell you this, engines today are built completely different than 40yrs ago. Fuels, oil viscosities are all 100 times better than the 1970's. Most engines today are aluminum as opposed to cast iron. We have fuel injection & ECU's that control everything. Cant compare 1970's to now.
