im sick of screwing around and rebuilding stuff i just want to spend the money and do it once right. You get what you pay for.

 

any help would be great i recently got into 22r stuff after having my 22re 4runner for a few years so i am kinda clueless after seeign thta engn builder where i usually get stuff doesnt have 22r heads

im kinda looking to buy new and do it right the first time

 

I didnt think that the RE heads were different than the R heads - at least not enought to make in "not run"... did ya ask enginebuilder?

 

Heya the machine shop here in Petersburg Va. has one. Pressure tested, straight. Reground or new valves depending on what it needed. These guys rock & do really good work. They also have quality gasket sets at good prices. They bought out a parts store and have loads of Felpro I think stuff. Let me know if I need to hook ya up.

the heads to the pre 85 engines are slightly taller there for the 22re heads will not fit a pre 85 22r but will fit a 85+ 22r. I have a pre 85 22r head that i had the valves all resurfaced and new springs and valve seals installed in and then realized it would not work because i have a 85+ 22r so if ur interested let me no.
