ok well i got my new head.. thanks mike
going to bring it to get resurfaced
is there anything to clean the crud off the valves? just curious

whats the best place online to get a headgasket
mrheadgasket or headgasket.com right
looking for the cheapest place

are the idler/tensioner pulleys supposed to spin freely, if so i guess mine are good.. my boy dante said they arent supposed to move like that.. and mitsu sells them for 150 ouch.. i cant find them at any other parts store..

when i bought my udp from blake he gave me 2 acc belts with them, are they junk? should i just buy 2 new ones because they are cheap.

is our timing belt 2 belts? the cam drive and balance shaft belt? yes or no.. i thought it was just one.. guess not.

i found a water pump.. i want to change it all do it right even if im going to sell the car i dont want to give away no lemon..

what else do i need i so thought i was missing something.

t belt
ac belts
water pump
i/t pulleys
got my udp
headgasket..

I love dino and 2gnt. ####ers (my word) bliz stole it but i let him borrow it

they should have something like a hot tank. they dip it in and leave it for a while and pull it out everything is gone.


>whats the best place online to get a headgasket

i would be safe and just go with the factory one. we know that the new mls gaskets work, we don't know about some other brand though

I'm pretty sure they spin freely, not positive but pretty sure.

>when i bought my udp from blake he gave me 2 acc belts with
>them, are they junk? should i just buy 2 new ones because
>they are cheap.

may as well, everything is off so do it while you can
>is our timing belt 2 belts? the cam drive and balance shaft
>belt? yes or no.. i thought it was just one.. guess not.

once agian, almost positive its one piece, make that 99.9% positive

When i did my t-belt change, i replaced them. The one that was salvageable, spun freely, and the new ones spun a little less freely. I would change them imo...

Just a warning- I read in the Chiltons (or 420a rebuild manual?) that you should NEVER hot tank aluminum parts, including the head. There's definitely a cleaning process for aluminum, dont know what it's called, but I know hot tanking isn't it.

PRETTY GOOD CHOICE
i would do the same thing but i cant afford the insurance for me my insurance quoted me 196 amonth just for liability on a GSX
it is my dream but i guess i will have to dream and keep what i now have
pretty cool from your part not wanting to sell a lemon
good luck man
