7mge vs. 7mgte Block

techno_freak · 07-22-2010, 09:46 PM

I recently blew my head gasket for the second time on a 7mge and I'm on my third engine. After searching I finally learned that the stock head bolts are pieces of shyt that stretch too far. So its only a matter of time before this third one goes again. but on the bright side I have really two spare engines for scrap. I'm planning on boring out one of the two blocks dropping over-sized pistons in and rebuilding it with boost and ARP head bolts. I got one good crank, and one good head and the block. Will boosting work on this??
