There are definitely lots of salvageable goodies in a pair of bigports, don't chuck em!

Yeah thats why im trying to give them to someone can use the parts !!!!
i have a small port so the crank,rod's and pistons are useless to me, i just wanted the head

[Adams4AGTE]

Yeah!!! pen15 came through with a GZE rebuilt short motor For me

Just need to pick it up and get the rest of the parts and we'll be back on track Cant wait to get it in and run-in and will have.... Pic's of skid's,dyno sheet and a run down Eastern Creek as i live 2km from the track

[Adams4AGTE]

Hey all !!!!

Can anyone tell me where to find a Vrs kit for my small port thats not $1000 over priced ????

Any help would be great !!!

Thanks Adam

[Casey-G]

i had one but its pretty much just valve stem seals and a few gaskets now..

pretty sure i can get them for less than $120 or at least on $120 +P

[RT40Corona4AGTE]

good price ^^^^^

[Adams4AGTE]

All good ... bit the bullet and rang Toyota in Castle Hill .... $90 for the head gasket and $7 per bolt ....
will have them Friday

[Adams4AGTE]

On the way now

Picked up the shorty from pen15 tonight Thanks Heaps bud

Checked it over !!!!
Out come ....
the shorty has had been re-built bar new pistons .... but they are in good nick and not to sloppy

Now just need the money for the clutch and its go time !!!! will take me a weekend to get out, in and all parts swapped over but should be a good out come, with the fact that when its run-in should be able to up the boost

[Casey-G]

Just run full boost, dont keep it singing in the revs, i was nigheve about my run in, but once you get your head around it, it is essential to load up the rings both on boost and with high vac, i wish i had of done my run in with a turbo if i look back on it now.. lesson learned

Any more comments on this ????have heard pro's and con's ??? Again

Thanks Case

[RT40Corona4AGTE]

I agree with case! loading up both on boost and high-vac cant be a bad thing with a fresh boosted application!

I have had no problems doing it that way with the several engines I have built. None of with suffered any ring-bedding, run in problems.

[Adams4AGTE]

thinking i might sell the bigport head to get some cams for the smallport ???

might do some shaping to the small port and put some bigger cams in ???

[Casey-G]

Use the bigport cams in the smallport head

[Adams4AGTE]

Use the bigport cams in the smallport head

yeah but i was thinking going a bit bigger ????

the head is better off being complete !!!

[Casey-G]

then Go massive lift cams around the 270 mark with the bigport head
