The gasket they gave me is a nice metal/lead looking gasket.
It looks like a head gasket really, it's pretty nice, I have seen paper thin gaskets before I know what you mean.
The exhaust manifold gasket is a Two piece gasket they are good.
What is wrong with the Ebay kit? The only gaskets I don't use are cam shafts seals, front and rear main. Other wise they work good. I have done this 5 times already on my motor, no leaks...
I have rod knock on my '88 Supra. my noise can be heard at idle though, and all RPMS, you may want to check your Shims on your motor. Have you sort of figured out where the noise is coming from, ( bottom end ) ( top end )
I would take a stethoscope, or a long screw driver and listen to the...
I bought a full engine gasket kit for $61.28. it's perfect and wow it came with every gasket including the turbo gaskets. Here are some pictures I took to show you what ti comes with. There is not one seal, or gasket that is missing from this package.
I have looked a long time for a good deal...
First I just want to help you out a little bit. If you can read and join this site, then you should be able to type correctly.
There is a spell check you know if you use Mozilla Firefox. Also if you look on sites like YouTube and Google Vidoes you will find the pictures, and the videos...
With the aluminum pan I would be just as worried.
Now would you be leaving any opening, or ways of entry for the oil drain, or any venting?
I thought about making one, but I never really thought it was something I would need quite yet.
Correct, you cannot take them out the bottom. Some MHG are reuse bale. What Type do you have, I know HKS Stopper gaskets you can reuse. I have used a Hks 1.2mm HG before and had no issues.
Just do it the right way, you take the pistons out the top, you put them in the top.
Period.
The EGR, is something you will not want to get rid of really unless you switched to a JDM ECU. If you do not put your IAC your car will not function good at all. When these go bad you will will. Your idle will always bounce all over, and your Ecu operates off of the signals to make sure...
Build is on hold now! I just picked up a '88 Hardtop turbo 5-speed today for 500.00! I am going to work on it a little and if everything really is bad as they say it is I will be parting it out!
Would 20RA we fine on the head + the block?
Also what is the exact Head height MM for the head and block, it was stated in a previous post on this thread, but are these numbers the real ones.
I am going to make a list of everything I need them to do, I want this done correctly...
Ahh Now I understand the theory behind the tensioer, thank you, I am going to make a list of what needs to be done.
Would having a head gasket more then the material taken off bad? it would low the compression, is this s bad idea?
So I will ask them how much was taken off and then I can...
No no. When you deck the block, you need to have that lower cover on, otherwise when you place the head on the block that cover is taller then the block and the head gasket will not seat, and basically a epic fail.
Also what does " Lap " mean in words of milling? Do you lap a head? A block...
I am not boring it, unless I have too. I will be inspecting the block in like 15 minutes once the head is off, I am taking off the head bolts right now. Why does the tensioner have to be torqued to 36 Ft'bs? Shouldn't I tighten all the bolts on the bottom timing cover as well as the tensioer?
