here is a pic of the interior, by the way, I just did the short shifter mod but I still havent installed it due to the lack of a shifter boot...I need one bad..lol

I believe it was about $130 for the hg. and $120 for studs, 300 for head work and 150 for miscelaneous seals and gaskets.

oh nice and that is the first tan interier supra ive seen. im really liken the car man

thanks, im very anxious to get it running again, Im a bit afraid I must confess, because of all the horror stories I,ve heard about using Metal headgaskets and not prepping the block. although I did machine the head, the block i did not.

But I pray everyday that I work on the motor that it'll be fine.

oh im so glad someone else has a tan interior. its the first one ive seen except mine. looks great man.

thanks Damdog.the interior I hear from many people is still in great shape,it has no tears on the seats and carpet looks good.. as far as the block, it looked fair but you can never be sure until you have it decked,machined.lol.

today I got the harness on the engine and is ready to go into the car, but I found out that I have missplaced one of the flywheel bolts. I will have to search realy hard or else I'll have to buy one.
My debate now is if I should wait another 3 weeks to buy and receive the OEM clutch and throwout bearing or reuse the one that I had in it wich still looks decent in wear.
I know the right thing to do is to replace it now...but I just cant wait another week from driving the BEAST.
