Well, just for everyone's edification, here's how I wasted my money this morning: Went to the junkyard and pulled the throttle body off a '96 Camry. Looked at the throttle seal and saw that it was pretty much the same od(15.25mm). Brought it home, popped one of the seals out, and found out...

Congrats!

Ok, i just laughed out loud. I was sitting here, reading JJ's responses with my mouth hanging open. I couldn't for the life of me, figure out why he was so friendly and amicable. Then i realized it was 7 years ago! :D

So today, I did two things- I dropped off all my stuff for zinc plating, and I pulled the head off my old motor. I had planned on just cleaning up my head and dropping it on the new motor, but I have some investigating to do first. Cylinder #5 exhaust port was very oily. All the cylinder...

What was the 7MFTE used in?

Didn't have to drill out the plate- I just unscrewed those two screws. Took awhile, as they were trying desperately to strip their heads out on my screwdriver. They are M3.5x.6x8mm long, if you need to replace. Did you ever find a decent replacement for those seals? I boogered one up while...

lol. 10 months later, and you just now got the engine from mostly apart to fully apart. At least somebody has slower progress than me! :D Keep up the good work!

What's a 7MFTE?

Thanks. Well, since I had the front inner timing cover done, I could install the oil pan. Also, I installed an oil pressure switch up front next to the timing cover. This will activate a warning light and buzzer in the instrument cluster any time pressure falls below 5psi. ...so I'm hoping...

Another is Never start a land war in Asia!

Yeah, shouldn't be too hard to remove. If you're still stuck after wd40, you can try heating the gear a bit with a propane torch.

Two weeks and no updates... sorry guys. But there has been a small bit of progress- most of the powdercoating is done. Throttle body: Gloss black: Wrinkle black: The only parts left to powder-coat are the upper and lower intake manifolds, and they will be done in black wrinkle as...

Never seen performance half shafts marketed, and im pretty sure that the stockers can handle most anything.

Sounds like the rear turbine shaft seal. But I've never touched a Holeset, so I don't know.

I know you know this, but be sure the shop cuts the backstep back into the flywheel. If they forget to, and just cut the surface smooth, you'd lose alot of clamp force.

More importantly- WHO are you selling knock sensors to for a Benny-a-pop? Does he need a dozen more?

A-ha...

You have two different length spark plug boots on those coils? PS- I said it before and I'll say it again- I will buy this bracket if you make it useable. Fo' sho'.

Bear in mind that when you slide the cps in to engage the gear on the cam, the shaft will rotate as it slides in. I've always found it best to remove the cps cover so you can watch it as you install it.
