    cylinder head porting theories... and such

    Flub: next time I'm buying tooling I'll get a steel blade and see what I can do! Personally I won't touch much in the bowl just smooth it out and blend any edges. The only place where it's going to make a difference is on the short turn radius anyway and it's already pretty well done from...

    Kung: It would have to shut the fuel off as cutting spark on a Cat equipped car = bad!

    Gas tank removal tips

    Natan: Even with the flarenut wrench mine was "FT" ;) (it's a scientific torque setting "fuc**ng tight") I always wonder why things that are almost impossible to get to are done up so damn tight!

    If you're using a 1 or 2JZ it's pretty well a bolt in and the boxes are used behind many high HP cars and seem to be damn strong! (Just watched an episode of Rides where they put one behind a blown aluminium 427 Ford V8) Guess it comes down to what your wallet can stand before it explodes...

    14mm isn't it? with a 19 or 17 on the end of the filter from memory! (I could be very wrong here;) ) You forgot to mention either ear plugs or a rain hat !!

    Buy a catch can? If you plug the PCV system as Garrett says you'll have more to worry about then oil in the IC pipes ;)

    Measuring How much was Taken Off Block and Head

    JT: With any luck my new head will be here today so I'll be able to give you that measurement, as for the block not sure if I've ever seen specs for deck height! (Usually measured from the Main bearing saddle to the deck)

    Dead: If you have a 1JZ or a 2JZ the Tremec Kits are available off the shelf. I had to do the custom adaptor as no one makes one for the 7M!

    cylinder head porting theories... and such

    Toy88T: That slice is right through the middle of the combustion chamber and both ports! It's a 4 valve head so the ports siamese. What you can see in the pics is half a port at the divider. I'll take some more pics a little later today and DrJ will have some high res ones on Mk3Tech...

    Dead: There's a bunch of pics in my rebuild thread and descriptions of what it took to make it fit. It's one of the best easiest swaps I've done as everything is in the right place.

    my french supra

    BA: A Supra doesn't "pounce" on vermin like a common car ;)! (maybe it's hiding so it doesn't get the rust fallout from the Stang?)

    Suspension Question: H&Rs and ??

    Can't comment on how they'll work with your spring choice but I've had a set of Koni Yellows in mine since 97 with the only failure being when I bottomed it with both tanks full and the bump rubber split and smashed the shock piston into the bottom killing it! Replaced the bump rubbers with...
