along came a clutch, and then...
i pulled my motor to do a basic clutch, bought the rear main seal thinking it would be a good idea....from 800 ish to well i thnk im upto 2000 before the engine build now.
clutch and fly was $744
rear main seal and plate gasket $30
all factory timing stuff, tbelt water pump seals ect. $197
head gasket $250 with arp studs
completed bottom end build........NO idea as the guy just got it today. he is the local builder for trd -baja. i honestly dont mind spending the money, but this all started with a clutch
long story short, did the timing belt back in july and NOTHING under the timing covers were leaking...every seal, water pump and bearing is BAD. lol i always tell my customers that this happens. it all started with i got a wild hair and wanted to look and see how everything looked under there cause the cover was wet. turned out the two cam seals i didnt touch or have issues were coming out. then i thought time to install the cames, shoot having those off might as well pull the head for the mls head gasket. called my machine guy..."why not do the pistons and rods ect" all i see is nothing in my hand....money and car. and here i was to be getting a house.
well the st215 motor will not be used.
