is this the same supra you've been talking about ?
you don't need to worry about a blown head gasket if it's the same supra .
i tell ya it's blown period
i'd be willing to bet money on it
i'd also be willing to bet that on tuesday whom ever will decide it's not a blown head gasket based on compression only tests and you will fork over the cash with confidence .
my third and final bet is that : within 2 weeks you are crying the BHG blues in a big way (assuming you actually drive it during this time)
i see by your recent post that you are still in denial
p.s. thinking a little blown hg is going to be fixed by torquing the head bolts is a waste of time .
question : do you remember where the steam was coming from ? i know where the water was spitting out from but how about the steam same place or a spitting here steaming there ?
sorry to be the messenger of bad news , but you came here for advise from people who have been there .
i've been there so much i've got the BHG T shirt

Actually, it's a differnt Supra. The BHG car was an 87 and after yalls advice, I've decided not to buy it less he sells it for $500. I found an 86.5 that had some White Smoke at startup, so I'm havin her thoroughly tested. The price is great because she needs some body work and a new paint job. If the HG checkso out fine, I'll buy her and re torque the heads as preventitive maintence.
Will this re-torque help? Or am I destined to have a BHG?
