Thank you all guys. I was going to do the job by my hands... I'm still thinking about that.

What is it really that you are gearing up to do serge?
You never really stated it outright

I have been for three years in the USA and this is my first sports car....I did this kind of job only once in my life and that was very simple car.... not like Supra.... but I still would like to try it...

supramacist · 05-19-2008, 04:33 AM

Dude.... try what

?.

Tell me more Serge. I'm dying to know what you're really doing.

EDIT: a valve job???

You should peep it out in here. You don't want to do a valve job in your garage.

This is how it currently looks like....I just thought that cleaning of exicting valves with replacment of new seals would be enough for this procedure. I think that's doable in my garage....Why not?

supramacist · 05-19-2008, 05:42 AM

All I'm saying is be very very careful.

Serge · 05-19-2008, 01:18 PM

alright....thank you.

Bill,

How about SST 09201-41020 for installation of new oil seals for the valves? Have you seen them somewhere?
Thank you.

Mine where very similar to these Sealy, You need to be very careful when fitting the new seals, I managed to split two of mine. If the head needs to be skimmed by a machine shop I would ask them for a price for re cutting the valves seats, inserting new seals and reset the valve lifter shims, they will also do a pressure test. You may find by the time you’ve bought all the tools; dial gauge micrometers, and the rest you could be halfway towards paying the machine shop to do it.

There’s a good guide HERE for adjusting valve shims.
