1 hour on a plane 7 hours getting home plus transport costs. >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHfslz0hr_g Thats the car in question (right hand lane) racing its brother. both forged builds. Phil

its not that they would have to source them, more its just the order of doing things to insure you dont order something that wont fit. I dont know a machine shop yet who will say for certain that it will polish up, and order bearings based on that. they will polish it and then order you bearings. so if you ordering the bearings yourself even cheap from america then you should do the same, order after the crank is sorted. what you could do if the lead in time for bearings from america is long, take the crank and get it sorted first, and order your bearings. before you worry about pistons or rebore. spread the cost over time.

Sorry I should have said that it would be my opinion that 74mm forgies are a waste of time. Therefore I would be ordering 74.5 in your case and working from there. You take pistons rods to machineshop He does machine work and then he can spec the bearings. See my first post for the correct order Phil

Sumps = nightmare Top quality sealant. Plenty on the end humps and wipe brown surfaces with thinners beforehand and allow to dry before putting your top notch sealer near the sump Phil

New valves New vs old 4efe 4age 4efte valve springs All the gear No idear So lapping in up next So to summarise my plan with the head, im replacing the exhaust valves and all the valve stem oil seals and lapping both exhaust and intake valves to get a fresh seal. so whilst my exhaust valves are shiny new, i still need to get my intake valves looking worthy. so thats what i got stuck into tonight. Left old but polished, right old not polished. then i lapped in the exhaust valves and got them numbered up to go back where they are matched to. tomorrow evening ill hopefully get the intake valves lapped in and then i can start looking at gasket matching and a mild port here and there. then it'll be time for a final clean and re assemble. anyone know the cost of new 4efte valve springs? or even the part number? do old springs wear out much my car and head only has 50k on it so fresh ish but springs have small amount of surface rust Chris green where is your SAfrica Toyota parts link?

buy the moving parts first. (rods/pistons/cams/valves) Machine work second (bore/hone/skim/lap/grind) perishable bits third (seal/bearings/headgasket) and you wont go wrong. Phil

Can also have these blasted and painted for £100 pounds. (thats really an unbeatable price that i can offer as we have a contact who does wheels for us every week) Phil

bump ps these will be sold without tyres. the tyres on them are good condition etc but too big for a starlet anyways but the good news is that the extra rubber has protected the wheels well. Phil

Solid plan Phil

Ive a HKS fcon Pro standalone with EP82 plug and play harness. If your interested in something rare Phil

I was blasting mine though not powder coating but went down the road of loctite and what not. have had it off since and still tight and tidy. Phil
