  1. yea i did some research on how they work, apparently they create a cleaner exhaust buy combusting left over fuel in the manifold, where abouts have you seen those photos? so i can find out some more information on how to block off these holes without causing turbulence so when the bolt is in its hole, the shaft protrudes into that small dimple that you can feel in a 4k head, if i use a standard bolt i am worried that it will not seal correctly as it does not have a chamfered bit on the end, any ideas guys?
  2. what i don't understand is how the air injection works? if they are closed bolts? any idea felix? maybe its a 3k head? what number is stamped on it?
  3. so i went to a machinist today, to see if they could make up that bolt, they said something like 80 bucks a bolt...i felt inside one of the 4k heads and they have a little dimple, I'm not sure how deep it is, maybe i should just get a bolt without the chamfer and shaft bit on the end, and use that on all four? or do you think it needs that to seal properly and if i do use a standard bolt this small chamber area could be an issue? what a pain in the ass
  4. sif you wouldnt get your mate to sit in and steer while u tow it with a rope
  5. it will probably be cheaper to buy another rim
  6. ok so i just took out that bolt, and it looks weird, if i use a normal bolt that size, will i have problems with exhaust flow as it will have an area to go up into? should i get these holes welded up? or will bolts do the job just the same? i don't think i will be able to find these exact bolts either, unless toyota have them?
  7. yea I'm pretty sure it is a 5k head, but it doesnt have the lugs, yea i didnt notice the hole over the exhaust port, hmm i can't remember if these were blocked off before i took the head to the engine shop, ah well ill have to find something...
  8. i guess its the same as getting green slip for say a wrx with a blown engine that makes no power vs a ke70?
  9. ok so i was putting my head together and i noticed these two random bolt holes on either side of the middle head bolt, i have had a look on the other 4 heads laying around the garage, but they do not have these holes, anyone know what they are for and how i should block them?
  10. nope its not a genuine, i think i might go get some of that copper spray stuff, anyone know what its called?
  11. or you could check the casting number? or lugs under the spark plug holes?
  12. yea it is a pretty good carb, i had a holley 180 on my worked 4k which is pretty much a shitter copy of the weber, make sure its tuned right
  13. i don't think its necessary to use double valve springs on a stock cam
  14. is it necessary to use gasket goo? and does that go all over the gasket?
  15. i hope so, my 5k is running hydros with crow springs, it should work, what cam are you using?
  16. hey guys another question! whats a good way to get the block clean before i put on my new head gasket?
  17. how do you clean the block?
  18. is that a log you hit? why wouldnt someone move it lol
  19. i very much doubt it, why not just measure it?
  20. also while the strut is out cut a slot in the brake line thingo, makes it alot easier to remove calipers etc in the future, without stripping nuts
  21. why don't you keep the original shit in there and put your cd player in the glovebox? or mount it underneath?
  22. hmm why don't you save the trouble and get a 4k one?
  23. its a different engine, its not going to work, every engine has a different note, you could always a rotary in it?
  24. well the sump has to come off anyway to get the cam out
