Yes Sir they do.... JoelD

Chris, new part is showing ~ $150.00 range, had you thought about pulling just the shaft and replacing it? I am in Dayton and may be able to help, if needed. Although *stuck at the GF's does not sound all THAT bad .......right ( remember she MAY read this ) JoelD

Josh, you would be better off running a "leak down" or "cylinder differential" test. This actually is a better way anytime, but trying to build the proper compression at a slow rate of turn ie. socket and rachet is not going to give you the desired result. You will have a certain amount of...

I understand there was a request.... there ya go ;) JoelD

May be in for a set, gonna watch for a while, what are the finalized specs? JoelD

ROFL, True on all points, pitting from corrosion, and warping from heat cycles coupled with the low torque and poop gasket. LOL. BTW nice site, checked it out, not a mkIII guy myself but do have a 7mgte in my mkII, and found this thread interesting. I figured I'd post up on what I have seen in...

Wow, that is an abrupt response...... Not trying to piss anyone off, just sharing experience. Sorry if I was misunderstood. Not saying machine work is not necessary, or that machine work is bad. Just saying that BAD machine work is bad. Also wasn't saying that because it is long it is...

Aha! (Hi Kurt) In my previous point I stated issues with the machine work. Chances are Toyota has done a very good job originally on the head hell they made it right. The head on a 7m is friggen LONG.... thus warpes easily, and gets twisted. 90% of them in a not torqued state are probably...

Problem is 85% of the shops will clamp down the head, and either move it and reclamp to do entire face, or not have it clamped correctly, thus when it gets machined, it essetially takes the HIGH spots, which can be bad. If you took a brick, and somehow twisted it, then measured the amount it...

So many mkii's, o- that is definately a good thing, Heck we needed like 4-5 more to even stuff out, and then like 6-10 mkI's and some more mkIV's. Then it'd been great cruise footage! Well maybe next year. We have the cruise and bonfire tomorrowto wrap things up. Then take a break, and...
