The old SOGI webpage had a thing where they wanted you to tell Toyota about your headgasket problem. That was....I dont know, quite a few years ago.

It is cheaper to stay "not divorced".

If you have nothing intelligent to contribute why post? I have read some dumb shit in forums, but damn.

And that was the 80's I believe. Maybe early 90's. It ran 8's. I recently picked up SSC with Duane Stevens' ride. Considering the grunt down low the car made becuase he had the turbo built that way, I no longer see 800 rwhp as a problem, if you have the money.

There is a listing of the vaccum lines under your hood.

Overbore time.

and what do the cylinder walls look like? I didnt know you still were in question as to the noise. Other choices are cam journals, water pump, oil pump shaft, etc.

New factory clamps are my prefrence.

I have seen more scored pistons than spun bearings at Toyota.

You saw a 7MGE block blow? Interesting. I have never heard of it, although if you throw a rod you will probably punch a rod through that block. The GTE block is a GE casting with in house mods, like the squirters and oil feed. 9.2 compression is nothin in terms of risky. Your only risk is...

Maybe if you put 1JZ door handles on your car it will add some hp also.

Keep in mind, you wont hit 35hp. He did but what did he start at? 500+ isnt it?

The 7MGE Supra came with just one cat, unless you live in Kalifornia with the smog monkeys.

This is so old. What does horsepower limit have to do with starving a bearing of oil? How about nothing. Maybe you could say RPM, but not with our redline. I think some people need to start doing a tear down on their "rodknock" instead of dumping in a used engine and finding out what the...

Actually, a BHG is a symptom of another problem. Usually. Oh yes I can. I have had too many 7M powered products to be "lucky". I have news for you, I have seen factory blown metal headgaskets.

Really? Then why does a non turbo 50 hp VW Rabbit smoke real bad? Not that they are around anymore though.

Circuit opening relay, open wire, bad connection, no pick up from the CPS, many things.

All head gasket jobs on any car really need a flat head and block. Smooth isnt as much an issue. Well, for the MHG it is. Times 5 for me. And one ride had 200,000. No rodknock either.

Take his advice in both threads and use the upgraded crankshaft.

Or you can follow the advise of diagnosing the problem instead of throwing more parts at it. It is your money.
