Yeah, I ignored the stumbling issue he was talking about. Other than that, this looks like it's the real deal...
Do your turbosmarts have o-rings to seal? If not, do you foresee any leaking issues with the o-ring setup for the fitting to mount on the IC pipe?
They are called shims. They sit in a little recess on top of the shim buckets, which slide over and cover up the valve springs. The shims ensure that the intake and exhaust valves open up to the required legths when the cam lobes pass over them per the TSRM specs.
Here's another one...
I think I'm Pretty much sold on this one now. The only thing I don't care much for, is how they have the fittings setup, with set screws and o-rings. Do you see a problem with them leaking/working loose (Locktite can fix that one)?
Here's an excellent video I found on the synchronic BOV Ian. One of the designers is the narator of the video, and the guy holding the BOV:

Is one of the words I can think of when reading this thread. The problem solver was either on the first or second page (first for me as I view threads with longer post counts per page).
Nice post # you got there ;).
First off, is it .002" that you are talking about. Is this the block only? Has the head been machined yet?
A thicker gasket than stock will lower compression.
Make your own. Buy from a vendor on here, there are at least a couple who are still making them... Buy one off of ebay. Make an adaptor plate for an aftermarket or stock 2JZ upper runner. Modify the stock one like mentioned.
Any other ways that I'm forgetting?
