    Re-torquing headbolts 7M-GE

    Your call, but if it were me, any 7M motor that I don't know the specific history of will get a new HG and ARP studs or bolts torqued to spec.

    Will a 7M-GTE bolt right into a n/a?

    Yep, but you gotta get a new wiring harness, ECU, etc. Do a search on it...lotta info on this site.

Trys to get the customer to change it out as soon as he sees it and he has plently of business, so it's not for the profit...

    trannsimission oil cooler?

    Here's how I mounted mine...the angle of the Pic makes it look off, but it tucked in nice. Both are Long Tru-Cool 71/2" x 11" x 1.5 ". The tranny cooler is on the right behind the drivers fog light with a Spal fan on it hot wired to run whenever the ignition is on. The oil cooler is on the...

    Strange coolant leak... is this what happens before a BHG?

    Sounds like your HG is ok...however, the compression is a bit low. The smoke you noticed...does it have a bluish tinge to it? If so, it's oil...could be from the valve seals or rings. For the short term, a Toyota HG with ARP studs (torqued to 80 ft/lbs w/ moly) like Jonathan said will work...

    Thanks! It was about $3K including the converter. Had to ship IPT a tranny...turn around was 10 days after it got there. Had to ship freight due to the weight of the tranny. There are other auto options...if this one craps out, I'm thinking about using a Turbo 400 w/ an overdrive unit.

    Aux Fuse Block...Question on Wiring?

    LOL...yeah I know...never was too good at math :) That was just what the placard on the back said. I'm gonna wire it for about 50 Amps, but I doubt the block will ever pull that much.

    I have an auto built by IPT w/ a 3000 rpm stall. It's holding up very good...but, you can kiss your feather smooth shifts goodbye, especially in the low gears. Don't get me wrong...the valve body modification causes shifts to be "firm" and distinct. When I had my old sawblades on (before I...

    Discount at Rock Auto

    I got this in my e-mail from Rock Auto...I use these guys to buy my Wix oil filters. They had the best price when I did a search a month or so ago. I buy three at a time (for 3 different cars) to save on shipping. Anyway, it's a 5% discount...I get nothing from doing this. Thought those of...
