lol no. Today I took off the right side valve cover and i found a few of the head bolts loose. Mind you, this engine only has about 3k miles since it's rebuild, but I rebuilt the engine and put it away in 2 halves. My cousin, from who I bought back this Cressida, needed a motor and I told him to take my built 7M-GTE and slap the head on the block and drop it in the car. Long story short, from the closer investigation, the head was never torqued lol. I'll pull the engine out, slap a new HG on it and put it in the for sale section titled as:
FS: LOL7M..
in TC.net of course. Actually, somebody already bought my 7M as we speak. Since the new owner is in no hurry, I'll pull it out next month when I'm ready to install my new engine swap and fix it for him. The bhg happened so quick, especially after me and kaifiji went out for a long trip. The temp gauge never budged nor was there any weird signs of bhg. It didn't act up until we fired it up in front of Daft Innovation's shop. Ironically, he said its gonna pop a head gasket right before kaifiji fired it up! haha. Thanks Rich.
