Found out that two rod bearing cops towards the transmission have play in them. Looks like I will need e13 torx socket to get the bolts out. Is that correct? I don'thave it so I will get that tomorrow.

(whos gonna rebuild an engine and put old plugs, wires, cap, rotor, oil filter.) oil/water pumps? timing belt? if you got the hook ups, or do a bare minimum build i can see sub 1000 happening. but thats best case. i've built a few motors, i know you have too. hence tooling stuff isnt our issue. we already have ring compressors, assy lube, feeler gauges, calpiers, hone maybe, plastigauge, etc... -------------------- QUOTE "And, as always, your friendship, help, and dedication to the advancement of Texas Celica dominance is GREATLY appreciated.

Can any please confirm that the rod bearing cap bolt used 13mm torx socket before I go get one? I am just curious to see how the crank looks like. Thanks.

Finally got the bearing cap off. The bearing was almost welded to the journal and its pretty scored. So time to work towards putting used motor in.
