Looking to order a bolt on ready head replacement this week for my 95 series. Seems like a few reliable options out of Australia - the one I have been in communication with is Mr Cylinder Head.
Looking for some advice:
1) Mr Cylinder Head in general: anyone had any bad experiences? The kit...
Ok people, clearly I didnt do my homework...I bought a 2000 Lexus LX 470 back in July 2022 with 157,000 miles on it and after bringing it to three different mechanics the truth is inevitable, that I NEED head gaskets, but probably more realistic, I need a new motor.
Im trying to decide if the...
Some very small fisher cracks between valve seats. Pretty common, machine shop said I should run it, but I had a new one on the shelf already. Already been hot tanked and checked for flat. This one is $500 + shipping

I don't like my exhaust set up, it's duals hanging low off each side. I don't care for the look or the sound and I want to change over to a single exhaust and muffler exiting the rear of the truck. My set up is a 350 V8 with rams head exhaust manifolds so I think I am part way there. I have...
I mostly drive with TEMS set to number 3, but i occasionally change to 1 or 2 for more comfort.
So yesterday i set it to 2 as i was on some pot-holed road. I was obviously driving extrememy slowly. When i entered a pothole, my head badly knocked against the car door. Couldnt believe it. Never...
As I was prepping parts and tools, I started thinking about the disassembly and I remembered that meant to ask the gurus here about the head bolts. I have new bolts and washers going on, but when I pulled my head, there were no washers. Im 100% certain of this. Additionally, a second head...
The compression values for cylinders 1-5 were between 100 and 125. But Cylinder 6 was 40. So I took the head off and had it reconditioned by a shop and put it back on - hoping it just needed a valve and seal job/new gasket. Put it all back together and compression values for 1-5 are somewhat...
I am purchasing a 88 FJ62 that cracked the head and the owner now wants to sell. The rig has 145k miles and I am debating on the best course of action for getting her back up and running and I would love some feedback or opinions from the group here. As I see it, I have a few options without...
Hey all,
Im trying to piece together a super short driveshaft with a steep angle. Ive got a 4runner double cardan front driveshaft but it seems like the cardan head is pretty lengthy (7.5ish inches from weld to weld). Any suggestions on the most compact double cardan I could replacethis with...
Anyone try one of these out?

Anyone have any experience with this company?
They seem to be new to the market.
It looks like they have the best fit and finish from all available options that i've seen.
I also like the fact that the roof opens at a bigger angle compared to all other options I've seen...
Friends, the Hernandez Hideaway is asking of we can get them an estimate of how many folks will attend. I told them 20 as a place holder and that we typically show up around 5:30 until 8ish.
If you can please use the poll to let me know if you can make it that would be most excellent.

If you can position it such that the whole surface of is illuminated with no parts in shadow, then wouldn't that mean you have a reasonably flat surface?
Started with a cyl 6 misfire. Then started smoking when cold but stopping after gets to operating temp. Got a borescope in and found this first is cylinder 4, then 5, then 6. Looks to be coolant sitting in 6 😅
