That bolt is really stuck- it's simply not fair-
It's supposed to be removed but it don't seem to care
You better hit it up with more than just cold air, so-
Heat it. Just heat it.
I'm sorry- I was bored.
ANYWAY- Use a propane torch to warm it up
Ok, for the past year or so I have been collecting parts for my next buildup; a 7MGTE that'll reliably handle the 300-400hp range. I wanted to have a complete longblock ready to drop in, rather than rebuilding my current one, so I could reduce downtime. Besides, as soon as the old engine is...
What's the thickness of material between the valve relief and the piston edge?
In the model, it looks REAL thin. (Of course, ALL hot models are thin..:)
I assume it's a normal dimension, though, yes?
Hey- I didn't see that you're in stockbridge.
I'm up in Kennesaw. I was going to say- if you have an NA, shouldn't your timing be set at 12degrees? I can't remember, but that should help with the hesitation.
If project 2 has some some of problem like...I dunno- it runs rough maybe,
check to make sure it has six spark plugs.
:naughty:
Just kidding (I couldn't resist)
Honestly- who here HASN'T had a brainfart, and overanalyzed a problem on their Supra, only to find out it was something simple...
Yeah- What is the status of this group buy?
I've been sitting on a block(not literally), waiting to put it together, and I want to get an idea of when this might happen. If not reasonably soon, I'll have to go with my new cast pistons. Any info is appreciated.

I'd love to jump on the "BHG" bandwagon, but it doesn't sound like it- not since you have a new engine, retorqued and all. What happens if you run the engine at idle, till it warms up, with the rad cap off?
Umm- what's an NSS, or an NSW??
neutral safety switch is my guess for the first, and dunno NSW.
PS- where's the starter relay? in the main EFI box under the hood?
Have you gotten an impression from them as to what the final price will be? I know you said it would drop with quantity, and that at the point of having an order of approx. 20-30 sets would bring the price to around $350 w/ rings- is that still the estimate with 45+ sets on order?
Just curious...
