Nop never owned a 7m and sorry but im not planning on it either 
Although I htink it was you I was looking at buying the 7mgte short block off a long time ago.
Ive got an 86 ma70 that i brought with no motor or box. iv brought a 1jz and auto for it, and just lined up most of the parts i can think of that i need to install it from john shannon.
im also a member on forums.mk3supra.co.nz with the same user name (and other forums like toyspped, toyperformance etc

Nop havnt owned one... and dont plan to either
im not a hater, just cautious and wary... How many bhg's is it now for you?
(not a personal attack or anyhting, ive just foolowed the build and updates on your site, the work and care that has gone into it yet you still have troubles)
Id prefer a more reliable engine.

well.. since this is an american forum it shouldn't bother the nz natives too much
there's a company in kumeu called "gaskets unlimited"
lets just say... don't buy their head gaskets
when i first bought the car it already had a bhg from the friggin monkey's that owned it grrrrrrrrrrr... gee 30odd ft lb should be fine :s
but i learnt my lesson in buying hg's so i just went hks this time round
if you did a little research you'll find that most that have bhg's again is due to their negligence and originally it was toyota man that screwed up the torque, the engine is fine lol so don't blame our engine k
