    Chip in the head near coolant passage.

    And where is you're proof of that? I know you say that theoretically it will break down the viton, but in real life experience I have not seen this cause any detrimental effects. I have built lots of engines with copper spray on a new HKS mhg with a 100% success rate. Even if it did break down...

    Better placement for the 7m oil dipstick

    We were pulling a 7m engine out of a mk3 to do a 1jz swap yesterday, and thinking of some better places to have an oil dipstick then in the block. When we removed the engine oil plug, about 1 quart came out. Where did the rest of the oil go? When we removed the lower ic pipe, about 1.5...

    Difference between 7M and 1JZ Bellhousing?

    XTD Clutch scam!

    They all use the stock pressure plate to start, but it is disassembled and the spring is heat treated for more clamp pressure. On really heavy pressure plates they double up the spring.
