hey new on this forum. bought a supra about 2 years ago and was told it had a recent rebuild. 2 months later head gasket was blown. so i decided i was gonna replace it. during the tear down found lots of missing nuts and bults and loose ones.. after removing hear took it to a shop to get it surfaced.. found out it was no good.. 4.545 told min was 4.560. wow so bought a used one from craiglist. took to machine shop and it too was no good had a crack inside.. waste of 200. had my uncle look around and he got me one for 100 machined. now the car had been sitting for almost 2 years and finnaly gettin it back together but having alot of trouble cause alot of the old stuff is no good and alot of nuts and bolts are missing so keep having to go back and fouth to the part store. any suggestions on getting the exhaust manifold back on having trouble getting it to fit back in.
