7M Torque Plate

[Another MkIII]

After a career change, a house, a marriage, a baby, a pandemic, and another career change, I am ready to get back to work on the Supra. First order of business is building the engine the way I should have 13 years ago. Does anyone have a 7M torque plate that they are willing to rent out or sell? I know a couple guys used to, but not sure if they are still around. Everyone I could find that had one isn't active on here anymore, but I could be missing someone. Thanks in advance!

The old block head does not fit? Drill holes in the cylinders.

I’m not sure what you are suggesting here. I need a torque plate to properly bore the cylinders.

Pretty sure that's going to cause low compression across all 6 cylinders when I put it back together.

You need to load the places where the cylinder head is screwed to the cylinder block. What difference does it make to the threads in the cylinder block if it is an aluminum solid plate or an old reamed cylinder head? Threading the studs will move the cylinder wall by 0.02mm
