    Own.

    Rented once. It sucked because the rent money was gone forever, no recouping that.
    But, there wasn’t much expense. You called and said “You’re shits broke, come and fix it” :rofl:
    Didn’t coat anything. (Well, except rent)

    I live in the county. We don’t have trash pick up.
    I could pay for it, but I don’t.

    Tags are $64 a year.

    I don't think he knows it yet, because it shows in "Users Viewing Thread" that as of this post he is still viewing it...

    WTF?
    That’s a stupid surcharge.
    I’d rather them just go up on the rate, than to try and appease me with a lame excuse.

    Sorry to change topic, but going back to my truck, I am thinking that just replacing the cylinder head in its entirety would be a good idea. According to Thompson, the factory manual recommends against machining the head. Yes, it would be nice to have higher compression and moderately more horsepower, but I want to do what's best for the truck in the long term. The truck needs to last until 2024.

    Wise idea re the machining. There's always a trade-off in modding something as it was originally made.

    If they don’t/can’t mill it. You’ll have to get a new one. Still cheaper than a whole engine.

    I am finding complete cylinder heads for the 2TR-FE online, but I am willing to pay out the ass to make sure that it's Toyota/Denso OEM...

    And the truck will still be out of commission for a shorter period of time.

    IMO you would be foolish not to make sure it's OEM. Buy once cry once.
