OK I will Try, but I have had no success with the extractors, but I shall try. Thank you guys...

Yes IJ that is the one, it is the larger of the 2 bolts. ( I edited my post with you're exact identification of the bolt) mdr40z I will keep that in mind, that sounds like a good idea. I think I may be able to got a dremel in there and do that.

Hey sorry to ask this question. Basically my 7M is in the garage I have been slowly rebuilding (school/work full time makes it hard). I broke the 12mm head 8x 1.25 short bolt at the base of the pump. It was about 20 degrees in the garage and I suppose that caused an issue for my torque...

I do not plan to reuse bearings. I am reusing main bolts and rod nuts. I measured the clearances and I'll have my machinist Mic the crank since he has it. I am not buying anything until the measuring is figured out. I waited a long time to even do this, so I do not mind waiting for it to be...

So are you saying, since on the TSRM chart, bearing 5 is the thickest for the ones that measured .051, i "should" be able to get the number 5 stamped bearing for those and close up the gap a little, then i should be OK? I am figuring this goes for the rod bearings too? Please correct me if I...

I can order the stock toyota bearings then? Struggling for oil pressure at idle, won't that be a problem? What options would I have? Any idea why the clearance would be so high? The motor supposedly has 75k on it, I am fairly sure someone just slapped a MHG on it backwards, so when I bought...

Stock basically, I am rebuilding now to keep it stock for 1 year. I am not changing Main Studs, or rod bolts. The engine is clean inside and only needs cleanup hone/cleanup mill no pitting or damage anywhere except my timing cover. So no more than 300rwhp. 3 inch exhaust, intercooler, and...

Posted the main clearance measurements on first post. please let me know what you all think.

No I did not, I just measured clearances so far, I am going back home this weekend to record all the number matchmarks on the bearings and the numbers I got for clearances. As soon as i get home I will measure the actual bearings too.

Which is why I am posting. everything is in good condition in the block, so when I go home I will post all the numbers, but I am trying to see why 2 bearing clearences may come up as .025mm all the others were .038 i think it is, which as you said is within spec.

Hi, I would like to post this because answers I get may help a lot of people. I am currently rebuilding the 7mgte. On the way out of course I measured everything, Rod bearings all plasti gauged in spec. My mains clearance measurements were as follows- 1 .051mm (#4 stamped on bearing) 2...

1987 Supra 89 engine automatic 7MGTE Hardtop After a few missed Supra purchases I found Rodney with one for sale it was $3000. Well I go meet Rodney of Park hill auto in Yonkers, on School St and Park Hill ave. He is a cool guy, claims to have owned 4 Mk3's in the past, being a mechanic making...

Thanks so far guys, and I am anywhere in NY thats why I didn't state a specific area, I live on LI and go to school upstate so I cover it all. As for the Tranny it's never been rebuilt has about 70k on it. Thanks for the info i'll check out these locations asap.
