    stock cam gear adjust-ability

    I have to disagree in the case of the 7M. Looking at the attached pic, the holes in the cam appear to match the 74° angular separation of the cam gears. By my workings, if the cam dowel holes are any closer than 25° apart, they would in fact not be separate holes!

    The banjo bolt for the oil line #2 returns to the sump, not the block. So just need to blank the hole in the sump with a bolt. Can't remember thread size, sorry.

    Toyota Canada cant even help me!

    To the best of my knowledge, the only difference between PPS pumps and non-PPS pumps is the drive pulley diameter. My car is an 89 with PPS, but I have recently replaced the power steering pump with one from an 86 IIRC and steering is fine! I simply swapped pulleys over... PPS pump on...
