BHG removal

stumpjumper · 01-30-2006, 06:39 AM

A regular tool box should be sufficient, mainly size 10, 12 and 14 mm sockets. You'll need some large hex keys for the head, my uncle custom made some cut from a huge hex nut. IT is crucial to properly clean all gasket surfaces but not to a degree that you scratch major grooves onto the metal. Make sure you sufficiently clean up the block surface (this is especially important). Get the head milled, replace all injector seals, replace any gaskets, make sure you achieve true TDC, and keep track of everything. Get a stock toyota HG, some ARP head bolts and you'll be good to go. I was basically a noob when I did mine, but now it runs great and I didn't have to pay over a G to get it done. Just takes time and patience.

This is a great learning experience. Find a freind and get to wrenching

Good luck.
