SO YES July is a good month so far for the Toyota Tacoma 1UZ-FE
- Custom heads are torqued down
- Cams are in
- New starter is in position
- Balanced injectors are secure under the fuel rail
- All rubber seals, o-rings and gaskets are new
- Water pump is brand new
- Pulleys are all new
- All the hardware is P-coated or painted
- Wiring is cleaned and conditioned
- New timing belt is in place with new tensioner
- Adaptronic ECU and new wiring harness is on standby for installation
- Innovate wideband O2 controller is ready for tuning
- Basically everything is new except the oil pump which Mr. Lextreme is warning me about but I do not want to take the whole engine apart AGAIN to put in a new one plus I have a whole extra engine so I'm covered =]
Things are looking good!
I am waiting for paint to dry on a few nuts and bolts. Tomorrow the rest of the covers and belt components will be assembled. David over at Lextreme.com recommended this starter bolt modification which I thought was a great idea. Read about this over here:
