    Yes
    I hate to bash a local company but I had a pretty bad expereince with National and would not reccomend them. I custom ordered leaves that came out wrong and they didn't stand behind the product or make it right...I was told later that they no longer actually make anything there themselves thay just take measurements and order from someone else...which is why they could not fix the prob. Looks like they have also relocated into another shop in the C-Mont area ?

    It I not just a lil bit, it's piling it out and sorta pulsing if u will. Like as it a piston strokes and pulls air in its pulling water too. I dint smell the water. It was noticed when I was getting ready to leave to come back home. Anthony is gonna get it compression tested and leak tested, guess we will take it from there. Fucking bummed. I would have bought a Bette taken care of donor truck if I was gonna use more than the cab! Plus I pretty much have the donor motor, Ecuador, harness and all smog related stuff sold to one buyer.... Needed that $ for da build shit fuck cock suck.... Keeping fingers crossed!!!

    I believe so. Pretty sure the H70 isn't offered anymore.

    Oh ok. I just had Toytec here get me prices of everything and Deaver was on that list. They told toytec that they did have the h70 in stock ready to ship. But I didn't have the funds. So I'll double check with them. Thanks!

    Edit: @EL ROJO that sucks man! Good luck hopefully it's an easy fix.

    Wanted to put this here too....This should be no suprise to you guys, but the guy at glassworks has told me two times that my kit was to be sent out (fiberglass front and rear) and it hasn't been sent. It's been over 2.5 months. I call and call but they don't answer.....not sure what to do at this point. I want the glassworks and am willing to wait but shit, tell me the truth about it, don't tell me it's being shipped when it's not! I don't hand out $1100 dollar loans.

    Exactly, I've never seen a head gasket problem pour water out the exhaust, it normally turns it to steam

    So to add to the recent destruction of all these tacomas.... I just drove 1,500 miles with my tacoma back to california. The last 200-300 miles I got a violent vibration upon acceleration (felt like its coming from the driveshaft) around 60-70mph and when I let off the gas theres a deceleration shake around the motor. My initial thought is ujoint??? Any thoughts?

    It wasn't smoking, looked clear like water but I did top it off at home with some distiller because of a pinhole leak in rad. I was leaving and didn't spend much time with it.

    No smoke that I saw. It was a large amount of fluid puking out

    I'll will have a update soon.having a compression and leak test done on it. Waiting o hear back.

    The amount of "water" coming out was not normal. It was nuts lol. It did rain a ton the night before, truck was inside shop. Shop does leak a little but I don't see how that much water could get up and in the exhaust. I don't know and this fucking stupid!
