I Think its over priced at $1400 I think one could just hand fabricate one of these and they do sell different carbide tips.. but yea I've never been a huge fan of buying something I could make myself lol

oh guys this took me like 8 seconds to find on google lol http://www.bhjproducts.com/bhj_content/products/blocktooling/org.php

Hey guys have you ever had any issues with galvanic corrosion when using copper HG? I feel I could run into the same issue if i spray copper sealant on the MLS?:confused: Galvanic corrosion is when two dissimilar metals (copper spray/Aluminum block and head) come in contact in the presence of an...

Im sure you can fab up one of these lol, I was actually making some drawings the other day on something like what you just described, if the depth of the groove is too critical you can always just make a stop that wont allow the carbide bit to continue any deeper.. I think it can be done :D

Awesome would you happen to know any specific brands you may have used so I can search em up? And wow Thx for the heads up I thought they came ready to use, exactly what annealing process do the cometic MLS hg require???

I read on the arp site on theyre torque chart and 70-75ft.lbs was the recommended torque torque.. and yea I also read they recommend they're torque lube.. The seal I saw was on speedys link to a pontiac site that showed the o ringing process they were applying it to the gaskets around the water...

The torque for the 10mm ARP studs is upto 75ftlbs I wonder if they would he 80ft.lbs.. and I notice ppl use some kind of sealant on copper hg can it be used with the mls to aid sealing?

Im concerned about applying too much force to the ring while on the lathe, and the only lathe i have access to is in my school its from like ww2 and it doesnt cut perfect, and i only have one blade that can cut steel lol.. i will be buying MLS gaskets soon and the 10mm lextreme ARP head studs...

Yea in my head it all made sense for it to cut into the aluminum block but I now remember the sleeves extend around that area, hey Kriss how hard is it to make these rings?

Hey what would you guys think about this, its just something I pictured while sitting in English class :rolleyes:? I figured this ring could be fitted snug in the bore Diameter of a larger MLS HG for example if the inside Dia. of the ring is 88mm outside is 92mm then maybe the 3UZ(91mm bore) mls...

Kriss thats pretty cool,im assuming you used steel for the rings? and when u do this and cut into the head would resurfacing the head remove the indentation cut from the ring?, how hard would it be to make these on a lathe? im really considering this in conjunction with cometic MLS, maybe if I...

Yup they told me they only offered it in .051" thickness and the Tech rep told me it would cost like $600 i dont remember the exact price, I called (440)354-0777 and asked for the tech rep cause i wasnt sure if it was a whole new gasket or if they were just adding the phuzion rings to the mls...

BTW speedy tight work with the Supra! i just read through your build.. I wish I had half the machining tools you got!:eek: it would've made my life a hell of alot easier :D.. The O ringing is a bit out of my reach at the moment but I think if i had the coin id go with the Cometic Phuzion HG, Im...

I've never really seen an o ringed engine in real life.. do you have to machine a recess onto the head or around the bore? And is it expensive?

I actually called up cometic after school and they said that they do carry it but only .051" and only 90mm bore nd the 1uz Is 87.5mm tech rep said it would work just fine.. the set will run you $600!! So Ima just stick to the MLS for now lol.. how much did you torque ures to? And what's the max...

oh man and all along i thought i would be able to boost 20-22 psi with just ARP std studs and MLS.. do we have to special order these from Cometic??? how much boost do you guys think these will hold?? im planning to use the basic 10mm ARP studs sold here on lextreme

So there i was taking a spark plug out to start trouble shooting and i noticed the connector plug (EC1 i think) had a wire that had backed out of the actual plug, I was like you SOB i shoved it back in and it fired right up.. thank god, now it revs pass 4k but i have super unstable AFR anywere...

im really hoping its fuel.. i havent had a chance to look at the car im going to do so today.. and what is an optimum AFR for while its building boost and while its under boost? keep in mind i have a stock engine stock head gaskets and head bolts, and when I should start pulling timing and at...

I've been super busy lately I go to two schools plus nite school and I'm training for a bodybuilding show next week so I'm booked lol.. but tomorrow Thursday Ima go ahead and start troubleshooting this thing I really hope its just a fuel pressure issue cause I hate electronics lol

Man I triple checked all my connections.. Im sure its installed correctly:frown:
