    Default engine rebuilds melbourne

    i just change my oil filter and oil and leeds and sparks plugs(what a pain to change). what i found on No. 6 spark plug has mild oil all over the spark plug. i went to repco they advise ur stem seal is gone. hrmmz thinking i got 7k put away either rebuild the 7mgte with forged stuff or go with the 1jzgte conversion. but i guess i like the 7m to much. so i was wondering who here in melbourne can rebuild my engine. and get all my Metal head gasket put in etc... was wondering also price all this gonna cost if i provide all the forged set and neccessary stuff. I dont have time...so get some1 to do it.. and do it right.

    Just a thought, the cam covers on a 7M are fixed on with phillips head screws, and I know from experence that they come loose over time... Its quite possible that your cam cover is loose, which will cause oil to leak into the middle of the head, and because of the way the motor sits, the oil will end up around number 6...

    Maybe put some allan head bolts on the cam covers and see if that helps...

    But if you want to rebuild look here... Search is your friend too...

    At least wait until you blow the gasket/crumble some bearings and have good reason to rebuild it!

    if you do decide to rebuild it, ive been dealing with hedley at james race engines a fair bit lately with my workshops and my own stuff. they are really nice and do quality work.

    not sure bout prices, i havent really checked anywhere else.

    talkin to him today and he mentioned they've built a few 7M's in the past too.

    their ph. number is: 9372 3111.

    Nothing wrong with a little oil on the spark plug? I get that too on plug 6. Just makes me more punctual on my services.
