If it comes down to it Ive got my project supra sitting untouched. Ive got just about everything to make it back to running except an intercooler and exhaust. I was planning on making it FFIM So I never bothered putting it all together. If you can find out whether you get to keep your car or not...
Makes me kinda wish I didnt send my 2 shells to the scrap.
Ill go talk to the people tommorow if theyre home since I gotta go by my friends. If not I might be able to talk my other friend into donating his black GTE thats been sitting for almost 4 years in his garage with a blown head.
Ive got a spare 260K N/A block/crank, 260K head with stuck valve I could fix, 100K head that needs thermostat housing/EGR bolt replaced, N/A cams, Turbo intake manifold and a bunch of other goodies I can part with.

Im not to worried about the threads I have more bolts from other heads to Mix and match.My cousins being cheap on fixing his car so thats the best I can do for...
Is it OK to reuse headbolts?
I know it'd be better to go with ARP replacement but I cant afford them now.
Since Im gonna reuse them Im gonna clean the threads on the bolt and block. And then after 60-100 miles retorque them to spec (54 LBS).
Will this work?
