February 24, 20179 yr Author comment_708268 Good to hear! Many other bits you're waiting on? Not a whole lot, mainly the expensive things. Haha. Elite series Haltech(maybe the new street dash too). Clutch for the W series. Fuel system. Intercooler. I may get some new custom pushrods too. Report
February 27, 20179 yr Author comment_708290 Don't want spool? I've still got the spool conrods, but the standard A12 pushrods probably wont like what I throw at this engine. Luckily enough there is a guy 10min up the road that makes custom pushrods. Report
February 27, 20179 yr comment_708294 Sorry misread. Pushrods not conrods. You could try and find some tomei chrome moly a12 ones like I have. Guess they don't pop up real often though, mine were never advertised as far as I know and were offered to me. Report
February 28, 20179 yr Author comment_708303 I actually have a set at home for a motor I'm doing(were not expensive either), I may need slightly shorter ones to deal with the TRD head as she's a bit shorter than a standard bigport head. Report
February 28, 20179 yr comment_708305 Standard pushrods n tappet covers are cheaper to replace! Report
March 3, 20179 yr comment_708329 where did you end up getting the head studs? and how much they end up costing you? Report
August 18, 20179 yr Author comment_710947 Just realised I don't have any photos of the TRD head on here. Valves are 38mm and 30mm head size. Ports are 38.5mm by 36mm on inlet and 30mm by 27mm on exhaust. Report

My other fab mate is busting my balls to get the car back to finish the tunnel massage and gearbox x-member, it will then go to other fab/tuner for turbo mani. Slowly, slowly when I'm only paying for materials. Report

August 18, 20179 yr Author comment_710955 HKS gt25/30 is what I currently have, close enough to a garrett 28/71, that could change though. Report
August 18, 20179 yr comment_710959 I'll put dibs on the 25/30 if you end up using something else! ;) Report
