Topic: 22r rebuild. Any suggestions?

[Zs Confederate Toy]

I am fixin to rebuild my 22r. I have a good block thats 30 over, 12 rods that I could prolly get 4 good ones out of, and maybe a good crank. Other than that everyting is bunk. Does anyone have any suggestions for what I should use? I am limited on income but Im lookin for some good  .  I looked at a engnblr head and cam, but I dunno what I wanna do yet. Lookin for a decent master rebuild kit too, not too cheap but not top of the line either.

Use to be able to get a complete engbilder rebuild kit for $300 on ebay.  that was a few years ago though.  i rebuilt my buddies motor with it and there torquer cam and it is legit.

i got the engnbldr head and 261 cam for my rebuild. nice stuff. has about 800 miles on it so far. no quarrels. not a powerhouse, but what did you expect.

as far as gasket kit.....FOR GOD'S SAKE GET THE GD TOYOTA HEAD GASKET!! AND MAKE SURE BOTH THE HEAD AND BLOCK ARE PERFECTLY FLAT BEFORE TORQUING DOWN TO FSM spec.
i did a lot of reading before i did mine and seems like every head gasket issue i found (new and old) was related to either crappy machined surface, incorrect torque, or poor quality gasket.

it costs the same as aftermarket and is faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar better than anything you can get in the aftermarket.

get those things right and the rest is gravy.

I heve been using the Fel-Pro HG's and they seem ok but Im not sure with my recent engine woes. I will definitly give the Toyota one a try. Both the head and block will be going to the machine shop to have some work done and brought back into spec.

Do a hybrid and put a 20r head on it

I have the stuff to do that but I have a later block and I kinda want to run EFI.

[79toy20r]

EFI is the way to go then for sure
