The head is warped out of spec, so I'm just going to have him deck it, ream the head bolt holes out to 1/2" for the 6 bolts studs and tap and plug the egr. I'll probably have him check the valve guides too just because.

Ahh, too bad this isn't a few weeks from now! I could do all of that for nearly nothing.

Well, FWIW Cylinder Head express is like blocks from where I live and I'm planning on bringing it to Gosh.

ha, yea. For the motor stuff I am willing to pay a few extra bucks.

Actually, after talking to Cylinder Head express, I may just bring my head there, he used to do Brent Rau's heads for his 2g. :D So he does quality work, and I don't have to drive 40 some miles to get it done. Money saved there!

Yup I would just go to cylinder head express. They've done both my heads on my current talon and my old talon and did a great job on both. Sucks for me that they moved so far away lol. They used to be like 5 min from my house

Got a few parts yesterday, good deals on it all.

This thing came off MAP's FDSM, and its like new. Got a killer deal on it. This can replace that stupid aluminum underdrive pulley.
