    First BHG ?

    really? I have about the same temperatures as you and never got this, running german castrol. What type of oil do you run? Do you know why this happens?

    First BHG ?

    Milkshake plus lots of white smoke plus loss of coolant plus overheating = BHG Do a compression to be postitive, but i'd bet it is a BHG.

    Idles at 3k rpm NEUTRAL cant stay under 45mph!

    if you find a fix for this please post it, I've had the same issue (idle only at about 2400 though) and it was not my throttle, and not my TPS, i'm replacing the IAC now to see if that does it

    Greddy wins out then... its 217 and 1.5mm I'll have the machine shop let me know exactly how big the head is and compare that to original spec. If 1.5 is almost exactly what I need (I think it will be) I'll order that. (Anyone want to buy a 1.2mm HKS?) :)

    My Supra's Chronicles (400hp goal)

    I figured at about 400hp I will be somewhere between 15-180psi does HKS offer sizes in between? I know Greddy has a 1.5

    My Supra's Chronicles (400hp goal)

    I went with 1.2 because the machine shop work receipt I got from the last owner said that the head was not warped, and the amount taken off when worked on was "negligible". Same with the block... "negligible" From Suprasport: " HKS Metal Head Gasket for 1986-92 Supra - 1.2mm Bead This MHG has...

    Figured I would start a thread in here because I have pictures of my BHG change and figured I'd post them. I'll start with my Supra history though. My very first car was a 1988 N/A 5 Speed. Drove it for about 2000 miles and it rod knocked. Pulled the engine as a learning...
