Here's my Supra w/ black powder coated sawblades...

Well for that matter, neither has the Mkiii. The only people who hate sawblades are almost exclusivly MkIII owners. I've never heard anyone else say they didn't like them. *ATTENTION PEOPLE WHO FEEL THE NEED TO NEG EVERY TIME SAWBLADES ARE MENTIONED*: Shut the fuck-up about the...

The best part is looking at how shocked all the "Super Chevy" hicks are...classic!

Helicoil...but be carefull how deep you drill. The aluminum is relativly soft and it's easy to go too deep.....drill sloooooow.

Short term goals = Already there - nice paint, everything works, no rattles or squeeks etc, just installed hks stopper, tight motor (it's pretty fast), built a340e w/ kevlar clutches, LSD w/430's, dialed-in koni yellows, good tires, monster stereo w/Ipod, decent interior. Able to put mustangs...

I think it's called dark mica brown.

That car is gorgeous. If it's description is accurate, the price is a steal. Some lucky bastard we'll snap that up fast.

Contrary to popular myth, making an engine swap legal in California is really not very complicated. Here's the parameters: 1. The engine your swapping in, must be the model year of the chassis your swapping it into or newer (i.e. no motors older than chassis it's going to be installed in)...

Your father sounds like a honorable, old school, stand-up guy. Someone (a competent lawyer), should explain to your father that the most effective means to seek justice, as well as get this cop canned, and hopefully jailed (cops are supposed to be held to a higher standard of conduct) is to...

Attempted clever...Me??? I was just trying to distill and clarify... simplify if you will.:sarcasm:

This has got to be the best thing to happen to auto-electrics since the invention of the starter. It's one of those innovations that makes so much sense, you wonder why hasn't this come about until now? You said "costs are pretty high". Can you put this in perspective? What I'm asking is...if...

Holy doo-dads Batman, the Joker has been here! For some reason this one disgusts me more than the rest... Is the red fender part of the look? .

I did read your entire post, and I think you need to listen to yourself, because you hit it on the head despite yourself: See what I mean.

Adjusting the valves takes some time, partly because it's a multi-step process, you must: 1. measure and record clearances. 2. remove and measure existing shim sizes. 3. do the math and determine what sizes/how many shims you'll need to bring the clearances to within spec. 4. obtain...

Don't forget the lifters and shims...

If you insist on doing it this way, you will be better off with the oem gasket because it is composite and will conform better to less than perfect gasket mating surfaces than any mls or mhg can.

If you had no problems with the head...why did you pull it? A bad plug hole could have been fixed without pulling the head, especially if you are going to mickey mouse it anyway. And what figgie is telling you is correct i.e. you can pull a non-blown or undamaged head off, and it will likely be...

It doesn't matter if you didn't overheat it, just the pressure of a head gasket leak will put low spots in the head. I understand you're broke, but having it surfaced to make sure its flat is pretty cheap. It sounds like money is only part of it. I think you're trying to rush it, and I'm...
