Hi all. I'm in the middle of re-installing my cylinder head after a blown head gasket and a head refresh and have a question. After clearing the threads in two bolt holes, I've decided that the tap is too agressive and will revert to less violent ways to clear the rest of the threads . Have any...
G'day!
The head on my 3F has blown and I'm looking for a replacement. If anyone's got one lying around or knows someone who does, please lemme know.
I'm in VIC but will drive to NSW/SA.
Cheers!
Guys, I bought another head for my 88 fj62 and don't need it. It came from a running engine with good compression. I took it to the machine shop I always used and had them recondition it. It has new valves, new springs, and new seals. It has been pressure tested and magnafluxed. It is...
Doing what I consider a baseline+ maintenance which includes the valve cover gasket due to some massive oil leaks and noticed the front section of the cylinder head (where the timing chain and distributor gears are and thought they were rather dry.
My question is, do oil galleries exist in the...
So I had mine resurfaced awhile back. Reinstalled but then ended up pulling the head and having a valve job done.
A few weeks back I put the manifolds together and got all buttoned up and truck was definitely sucking air and running lean.
I pulled the manifolds off and went to another machinist...
Hi guys,

I decided to perform some minor cylinder head porting and polishing when my engine was apart for a minor overhaul. Researching the forums and looking at common practices with high performance motorcycle and car engines I decided to do some basic cylinder head modifications. If you have any...
While doing a valve adjustment for a customer, on a 91 FJ80, I noticed a glimmer of green in the sun. After pressure testing and cleaning the suspected areas I found this. It is located between the exhaust valves for cylinder 2 and 3. There is also a smaller one in the same spot but between...
I am about to put the cylinder head back on after a headgasket replacement. Bolt holes look clean and thread in without a lot of friction. I plan to use new OEM head bolts oiled per FSM. Reading on mud some say to chase the threads. FSM does not state to do this. I plan to run my bolts down each...

Evening everyone,
I recently came across a FJ60 with a 3B and H55F swapped into it. Motor wouldn't start and had very poor compression. After pulling off the head it appears to be cracked pretty badly. From my understanding all the pre cups are cracked along with that all 4 chambers have cracks...
Hi,
I have a slight problem with sleeves / tubes in my 12HT cylinder head.
The engine rebuilder who pressure tested the head before skimming just said - there´s is a leakage into some of the head bolt bores...

The last thing you could possibly ever want to do I know, but here it is:
My FZJ80 is beater SUV with 360,000+ on original head, valves, etc., when the thermostat stuck closed and overheated it 2/3rds up the guage, and upon removal of the head, it was bent 40 thousandths (even the camshaft...
Hi folks,
I am in the middle of a head gskt replacement, head has been pressure tested and skimmed. I am thinking I should replace the cylinder head bolts as somme of the old ones looked shot and I am assuming they are stretch bolts anyway. I am having trouble here in Blighty tracking down...

I sourced a head from China and unfortunately although price seemed good, 4 water ports do not line up with the head gasket and exhaust valve seats are too small!
I am now frantically looking for a good condition 3B cylinder head (ideally old style with 4 holes on center for valve cover) with...
