Get yourself a set of arp head bolts with the head gasket cuz yours will blow, no if ands or buts. I use www.horsepowerfreaks.com , they are another trustworthy site.
Replaceing all those 20 year old seals is a great start too. Also check your diagnostic codes to see what your engine thinks http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/TechTips/engine_error_codes.aspx This is the Supra Bible, read it...live it...love it! |

Forget performance upgrades right now, go straight for maintenance. Go over the car with a fine tooth comb, and don't overlook anything. If there's the slightest problem, fix it.
If you're planning to go with a MHG, you really need to check into what kind of machine work is required for it. You need to have the block decked, and the head lapped. If you get the block decked, you MUST have the front timing cover done while bolted to the block! |
