    Pics of ISC from the inside (going into manifold)?

    It looks like a little mag wheel ;) That is not a filter, it's a 1 way check valve (like Figgie said) to prevent boost from flowing from the plenum through the ISCV. On a turbo motor you need it or you got yourself a boost leak. It has a rubber gasket around it that looks a lot like the...

    Pics of ISC from the inside (going into manifold)?

    The body is actually ceramic chrome coated ;) JDM - I'm not sure what you are after here, but the part in the pic mounts with the larger tube on the bottom side. After all, it will only go on 2 ways ;) Just to clarify what Figgie said, the smaller fittings are for the coolant lines that...

    ARP head studs.

    14mm 12 pt socket...a 3/8" drive is easiest, but you'll need a 1/2" drive adapter for your torque wrench when you torque them back down. A 9/16" 12 point socket will work too iirc. You can do it with the cams in, but it's easier with them out and you make sure the socket is square on the nut...

    piston choice dilema

    800 HP? Hope you have deep pockets...you're gonna need a boat load of $$$ to prep a motor for that kind of power ;) JE or CP pistons...better get a stout set of rods too.

    Your favorite motor oil and why.

    In case there's any doubt what Exxon Mobil is using for their Mobil 1 base oil: (Thanks JJ!) Corporate double speak at it's finest...pretty much tells me that Mobil 1 is a Grp III oil ;)

    fuel problems....

    The pump does not run until the engine is actually started/running...here's how to check if the fuel pump is working: http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=FI&P=71 Lack of adequate fuel pressure could just as easily be a FPR problem. Do you have any ECU codes?

    Build advice

    The TSRM has a complete section on what you need to do if you pull the pistons from the block...read it...page EM-69 starts talking about what you need to do. The cylinders will need to be checked for roundness, ridge remove at the top of the cylinders, and honed at a minimum. Make very sure...

    AJUSA HG or OEM HG?

    Not quite right ;) ARP head bolts are 85 ft/lbs w/ moly for lube and 110 ft/lbs w/ 30W motor oil. HOWEVER, ARP head bolts are limited to 75 ft/lbs when used on an aluminum head (like the 7M). ARP studs are 80 ft/lbs w/ moly and 120 ft/lbs w/ 30W motor oil. There is no limiting provision...

    When doing a HG, should you machine both the head and block?

    If installing a MHG...do both. The surfaces must be flat and meet the RA spec for the MHG used. If installing a stock composite HG, both surfaces must be flat. But, you do not have to worry about the RA spec...this type HG will seal with standard machine finish. It is very important to...
