Ok so about a year ago i had gotten a BHG,
and after going through a few mechanics that knew nothing
about supras between the intervels i did some work by
myself.

I ran into a guy from molden motorsports on here and finally
found my mechanic, great guy and def knows what hes talking about.

After almost getting it to the point of even thinkinking of starting it up
for the first time i found the rag we used to clean out the combustion
cylinders of the bottem end and found some little metal wires on it.
Then remembering we used a wirebrush to get all that carbon off...

Now i can almost guarentee you theres a few little tiny wires still in there.
Should i just re take this whole fucking thing apart again and make sure?
or should i take the chance and hope it blows out the exhaust valves when they open?

NOTE: The guy from molden motorsports was not the guy who helped me
clean the inside...

Also i just installed a new OEM Headgasket and ARP studs. I dont plan on
making this a power making car right now, cause at the moment im riding
my bike to work and have been for the past year now... Its getting cold now in ohio and only getting colder by the day... idk what to do and last winter was horrible i got hit by a few cars and wrecked so many times... Funny now but wasn't then...

What should i do?

as bad as it may seem, you should probably take it back apart. you might cause yourself another headache taking a shortcut. thats just my opinion though and what i would do. lets see what other people say.

Are they magnetic? Can you pull the plugs and get a flexible vacuum line in there with a wet vac? Can you get on top of it and shine light in and look (just for kicks to see).

If you don't take it apart leave the plugs out when you crank it. You want to do this anyway to build some oil pressure without compression strain.

If the small wires are able to be picked up by a magnet, remove all spark plugs and drop the cylinder down to bottom dead center. Use a magnetic pick up tool and move it around the top of each piston. Pull it out and clean it off. Repeat 6 times.
