Goat: Hey man, I was going to head over and say hey to you @ Jenroes last weekend, then I got distracted...I love Lightnings dude, and I love your sig.

Special: Bill ordered his kit already, I'm just gonna get him half and we'll be splitting it. I CAN'T WAIT! That is some nice stuff.

PS- BTW, I blew the head gasket on the Supra. Stupid stupid me. Actually I don't know how the hell it happened, I was boosting a full bar and all the sudden a loud bang and nothing. It kinda still tried to run, but when I parked it and looked underneat there's antifreeze coming down. God I hope it's only the gasket...I wanna cry. Lol.

Dont' remind me about the Accord man! Lol...not a hose though, that shit was too loud when it went to be a hose, plus the engine was acting too funny for it to be a collant hose...maybe a larger vaccuum line, but I"m sure I checked them all, and that wouldn't explain the anti-freeze. Dammit why couldn't this wait until I moved into the new house...with a garage...Toyota is gonna rape me today!

Oh yeah, let's increase my daily allowance of SUCK...I lost my keys...fuck me. :P

You lost the key to my car too dammit! lol. Well, it's forced upgrade time! Titanium springs and retainers, p/p head, 264 degree camshafts, and of course, the steel headgasket!

AutoSolution loves you Merrill. lol.

I would look into trying to find out what caused the HG to pop if in deed it did. I think most run the stock HG. I would not experiment, run what is proven.

I'm not changing the size of the HG, just getting the beefy HKS one with some reinforcements just in case. I'm pretty sure we will see a faulty install from the previous owner is what caused it. He told me he had done a compression check and was messing with things when he put the single on. My guess is that the guy just put the head back on without a new gasket...big no-no. I hope. Otherwise, the machining of the head would alleviate any other problems incurred. There's nothing else that should have happened, 1 bar, no redline, it just went.

I'll be researching the Supra forums.
