    Lots of heat inside of car

    Oil Cooler T-Stats are different they're 90/10 by design I seem to remember my Toyota valve sealing fairly well when I tested it many years ago, by comparison the GM valve leaks like a collander, the supplied Vintage Air Servo controlled valve seals 100% but I suspect when powered it'll have a...

    7mgte valve shim specs

    Yes.... the spec is there for a reason. Reason being that in operation everything get's hot and expands closing the clearence down, if it goes 0 or less you hold the valve off the seat and the air/fuel mix makes an effective cutting torch burning the valve. The spec usually aims to get the...

    CT26 turbo sounds almost like a compressor?! High pitch air flow sound when boosting!

    Classic case of "FOD" note there's no marks on the inside of the compressor housing to indicate the wheel has ever touched it...

    Lots of heat inside of car

    Exhaust is no where near the Driver footwell in a LHD car so doubt it's that... (can't drive a RHD car in bare feet due to the dead pedal burning your foot)

    .5mm aka +20 thou, it will raise the compression a tiny amount but nothing to worry about, the blue on the crank is from the induction hardening that Toyota did when they made it.

    WB issue sounds like a fouled sensor, they usually read stoich under these conditions, you can try burning the carbon and deposits off with an Oxy Torch being careful NOT to melt the end of the sensor that can bring them back, or you can swap out the sensor they don't last forever. Also why...

    '89 Supra with a turbo LS1

    <nodding> one of the disadvantages of only posting it, pics and vids in the members rides area it's a bit "unknown" and a lot of people miss it! Always nice to see how others approach the same project, having said that still waiting on some more pics from the OP :)
