    Running a motor with NO-head & NO-Oil to destruction! HA!

    Do you really think that would make no noise!?!?! Hence the "sewing machine" noise! Plus the car pulling it.

    Questions about measuring main/rod bore diameter

    Do you have a set of numbers stamped on your oil pan mounting surface? Example(Mine:() 2221222 (Machinest is taking care of what I think is a FUCKING shitty setup by Toyota!) Personally not sure what they mean, but I know IJ does and I'm sure others. Has to do with the bore size.

    Running a motor with NO-head & NO-Oil to destruction! HA!

    Just goes to show you how fast an engine is rotating during proper operation:):aigo::aigo::aigo: A 4 stroke engine running at only 1800RPM is firing each cylinder 15 times per SECOND!!!! Pretty damn impressive!!!!! Good video.

    Should i buy this motor?

    Yah thats a crapshoot, who knows. I bought my motor off of someone here so I took his word. Good luck it took me a while to find a engine that I wanted that was also close to me too. Good luck man. Edit: Cool site, thanks.

    Should i buy this motor?

    Depends if its been molested before. 3 hours away I would pick it up if you can. What year block and what does it come with. I payed 500 for my 92 block.

    7mge-t questions

    12 pounds is raising the boost. If you got a engine that was prepped for a MHG and ARP's you should be fine. That is of course you have a good tune all the time...One detonation and the high compression fun is over. I loved my NA-T, partially the reason I went with Wiseco pistons as there...

    Oil Light

    Oil pressure WILL decrease with rpm. All I'm saying is with a light that is not working properly and no gauge who knows what your oil presure is. Of course lots of cars don't have them, but its good peice of mind and there cheap enough.

    so it's been a while, well I got it running- then the inevitable happen..

    Change the oil ASAP!! Turn it over for a minute to get fresh oil everwhere(more importantly coolant off the bearings) and then plan you HG repair, and don't run it anymore.

    Oil Cooling Setups?

    I suppose, but the only place you need elbows is either at the adapter, filter head or cooler(and they all only 1/2npt) and I would advise against 90's at all costs.

    What year 7mgte????

    What year 7mgte????

    The extra rib on the lower right of that pic is a dead giveaway, and all you can really see when the engine is in the car. Thats a "late" model block, Thanks IJ. Gonna be making some power this spring Brent? We'll have to race again:)

    Oil Cooling Setups?

    WOW lots of bickering over a simple, yet important setup. This adapter mates with the NA filter stud.Best one I've seen, and is what I use. Good thermostat, remote filter head and good filter, big cooler, -8 hose and the rest writes itself.
