Hmm, interesting..... I have to take Scroggins a new timing Cover because one of the coolent pipes was "broken" but I kno I didnt break it.... Oh well I guess, maybe Butch had too much to drink before working on our engines or maybe the Russian guy did it....

Oh, I wouldnt try and extract it... Take it back to scroggins and have them do it... They are charging me like 30 bucks to extract a broken bolt on my head...

Wow, I went to Scroggins today to drop off my arp main studs but Tom was not there. Anyways when I was walking out Bobby ran towards me and tackled me to the floor while I was not looking and told me if I was gonna do the head inspection. I said maybe, but I want to take cams off and all that...

You know how bobby hated all your head 1st and then liked one of emm... I hope he didnt confuse your heads with mine since you took soo many...:nono:

Lol wow, Lincoln... You should cut the tip of your old dip stick amd super glue it to the new one or just leave them the same... See now they are both the same length :icon_bigg But really on a serious note I dont think Toyota would make faulty dipsticks that would not allow you to read oil...

I think you should change the dipstick, this is a make or break decision..... This can defently ruin your motor and even make your car explode.... Get one with the same length tip...

I doubt I will ever go over 20... How much are you boosting? with that 500 hp beast you have there...

Wow, that was really fast... But how did the paint come off your thermostat housing soo fast... I like the nice old and used for over 200,000 miles look...:evil2:

Ah, I have arp Main studs but Arp head bolts.... :3d_frown:

Thank You Derek, for showing me I failed greatly in understanding something so simple... The noob in me came out... :biglaugh:

Thanks for the heads up, Will look into it. And yes, alot of trouble, money, wait, patience and work for this build. Only thing I would worry about is those stock Rod Bolts. Truth be told, I am reaching the end of my budget and yet need to purchase the HKs metal head gasket and a few more...

Ok 1+/- for a larger gap... But 13 psi is right after I break engine in, after that maybe come december I will be wanting to go with a 57 trim, 550 cc injectors and a fuel upgrade. So maybe a gap a bit bigger is not such a bad idea at 16-18 psi... Thanks alot Jeff, Really appriciate it and the...

Ok +1 for oem.... And yeah, I never believed 13 psi would be a great amount. I am going with a Hks metal head gasket and with ARP everything but the rod bolts... I might still go with the ARP rod bolts just to feel better about this build. I am waiting for the Arp Main studs to come this...

I am having a Local Machine Shop do my 7mgte rebuild and the guy in charge of my build was concerned about me boosting 13 pounds on a stock ring size gap. He recommended and said he wanted to go a little bigger on the Gap so that I would not run into problems later on. With that being said, I...

Please tell me you are not slightly tempted to paint it pink also :P....

[What color do you guys like the heat sheilds? I think you should leave them black and add pink pokadots to them...:biglaugh:

OMG, BRAVO!!... Looks Great man.... YES!! apply atleast 3 coats of clear just to be on the safe side...

They are storm grey actually lol, I wanted the darkest grey possible but the camera's flash gives the outcome of these old tem's covers no justice hehe... And about the foam, Were do I get some?!!!!!! I been searching for the actual ones but found nothing :/...

Ha, covers look good to me hehe.... Here is a preview of wht I'm Up to... :P
