I've been looking for a rebuilt gte head for some time now, and one SM member recommended http://www.cylinder-heads.com This seems to be a competent company and the guy I talked to seemed knowledgeable. However, they sell gte and ge heads as the same thing, which they are, but I was under...

I've read quite a few times that you are supposed to replace freeze plugs and oil drive shaft bearings when you hot tank a block, because the chemicals will eat them away. When I asked my machinist about this, he'd never heard of this or had any problem with it. He did recommend, however, that...

The tip of the oil pump rides in what looks like a separate piece that is pressed in the block. Is it possible to replace this? Does anyone have any experience doing this? Thanks

Can anybody tell me what the different casting codes for the 7mgte head are and what the difference between them is. Is there a writeup on this anywhere? I found one thread that compared a #2 casting and a #15, the #2 being the old casting and the #15 being the new. The main difference was...

This may be a dumb question, but will pre '89 motor mounts work on a post '89 setup? Thanks

I recently pulled the engine out of my car and am wondering if its a JDM or not. The metal coolant pipe that runs along the exhaust side of the block that goes to the heater core on the driver's side looks like it has been factory capped off. The previous owner had a hose running over the head...

I took my camshafts out today to find that the bearing caps and where the cams rest in the head were rough and scored up. The cams look ok, but the aluminum head and caps do not. For the recorded, the head is a remanufactured one that the previous owner had installed about 15,000 miles ago...

Ok, a while back I did a combustion leak test which came up positive. I don't think the leak was very bad because I wasn't having problems with coolant blowing out the overflow, steam out the exhaust, or "milkshake" oil. Also, when I did the leak test, it was slow in changing color...

I've looked around and the cheapest place I've found is 935 Motorsports @ $130 for 1.37MM 84MM. Anybody know of anywhere cheaper? Thanks -Ryan
