I vote shims as well. When they're beyond clearance, they sound like injectors ticking away, but alot louder.

I run them. They're a bit stronger than the stock units, and aren't 20+ years old. I haven't heard of anyone ever having trouble with them.

Time for a multi disk.

yup. With the key in the 'on' position, and terminals Fp and +B shorted, you should hear the pump.

Agreed. Place load on the rings as soon as possible.

Oh! You need a working one? LoL. Kidding. Yeah, i would give you the one off my current engine. At least that way i know for sure That you get a working one. PM me if you wanna meet up and grab it.

I did the stage 1. Wasn't too hard, but you'll want to have a dial gauge+magnetic mount if you don't already have one.

I am posting here because NOBODY ever does. : ( If anyone ever needs a hand on their supra, or maybe even some small part, post here!

Anyway, to actually answer your question, yes, i think $1500 would be enough. Here's my guestimate, assuming you do all disassembly/rebuild: Hone block. 75 Deck block. 100 Polish crank. 75 Check/resize rods 75 Arp head studs. 120 New bearings...
