I've had my MKIII for over 20 yrs. now with 0 issues.
I did an HKS metal head gasket in 1992 and have always used Redline 10w40 oil changed very frequently.
I love that car and the 7M

I just bought an 88 with 112,000 miles thinking the head gasket was going to need replacing only to find that (surprise!) there was paperwork in the glove box showing a new metal head gasket was just installed. One less thing to stick money into...not bad for a $1500 car...

Ya I blew my HG awhile ago. Have the car torn down completely. Gonna do a complete rebuild and mod on the 87 7MGTE. Anyone know of a machine shop that has a torque plate for the 7M in the Seattle area????
