    Cylinder block is just that, the block alone. The short block additionally has the crank, rods, and pistons…. A much better deal, needless to say.

    so, I canceled my block order because there was a July 4th discount and re purchased it for 2600$, purchased a gasket overhaul kit for 200$ (includes head gaskets), also purchased new idlers and pulleys. I spoke with one of the service techs and they gave me a software to buy that has all the installation procedures. I feel like I hit the jackpot with this guide. Its everything I need to completely rebuild the engine! It was only 15$/month. Its called Alldata diy. I'm going through all the rebuild procedures and making sure I have everything I need to complete the rebuild. I'm excited to build this thing!

    Looks like delivery of the block is July 8th. I'm thinking about getting an insta 360 camera and filming the whole rebuild in detail following the toyota procedures. Would people be interested in that?

    A few additions to make me feel cool.
    Good ol Alldata. I worked at a shop in the 90's that used that. They would send us a tower of CD's that would self destruct every 90 days so they claimed. A lot of independent shops and municipalities use this still. Good luck.

    I like it. It’ll be a great resource to have a DIY video series on building this engine.

    Haha I’ve been on this thread entirely too long but I had to see how it ended. I am so invested now that I have to see the videos.

    I did get new head bolts and washers, the timing chains were all pretty tight and the guides didn't show signs of wear.

    Go with cloyes?

    The reason I asked about guides is that one populate YT'er was moaning about 2gr-fks coming with worn guides issues.

    From my experience I would go oem if need replacement. When I did a hg on my 4 banger, I bought guides to replace, but the fitment was questionable. The guide would not stay in place. Ended up reusing original
