    Probable change of plans

    Sounds good (in a way) The Lex is a great car and almost a Supra! I agree with your statement about not cutting corners you can get away with this approach with many cars but the 7M will bitchslap you into the poor house if you try.... You're one of the family and even if you're without a...

    What should I do while the head is off to prevent more problems??

    ok guess you wandered off.... If it has Head Studs what I wrote goes and it'll be easier if you remove the manifold totally. If it's just normal headbolts you don't need to jack the trans up and you will be able to left the head off the dowell pins to the side to clear the exhaust studs and...

    Composite head gaskets - Toyota vs Fel-Pro

    Artmo: The Cometic is the most forgiving of the MHG's for surface smoothness and if you're decking the block anyway may as well install it now! (who knows when the "crank the boost bug" will bite!) CS: Don't know if they do one for the 7M but I think it was Felpro many years ago had a...

    What should I do while the head is off to prevent more problems??

    Might have to unbolt the trans mount and jack up the back of the motor to get it to clear the firewall. I'd pull the manifold just to lighten it a bit but if you have a couple of strong mates to help it should clear.

    What's the market like in Hi for Supras? I mean could you get a good enough price for it to replace it when you get back to the States?

    Composite head gaskets - Toyota vs Fel-Pro

    Never ran a Felpro on a 7M but have used their HG's in man many builds on other motors without a single failure!

    CT26 62-1 and No Boost

    Even if the WG was full open you'd manage 1>2 psi of boost at least. Good move getting it checked at GCG. Was the BoV working before it died?

    CT26 62-1 and No Boost

    It sounds like it's surged badly on a shift and maybe straightened out the Comp blades and now there's not enough clearance for it to spin freely under boost :( Possibly bent the shaft..... (worth checking the BoV)
