Yes, my Haynes manual has a DIY on how to do a headgasket:-D You want to get one too. Also look into an insulating intake manifold gasket like that one made by hondata.

haha edited to avoid humiliation, but the reason i was trying to have a mellow boost setup was so i didnt have to deal with internals/rebuilding at all. Headstuds i think i could handle, and i know how an engine worksi just dont know the correct terminology for the parts, thats all man.

I'll get a manual, and i've researeched my *** off on turbo kits, i wrote a freaking 12 page paper about it for a class just got no clue about inernals

Bwaahahhaahaha. On another note why don't you do valve lash as part of your preparation for turbo. It has to be done from time to time and while doing it you'll get familiar with what's under the valve cover and where the bolts are.

haha Rem i know he does man, i've talked to him about it, he said he gave me a price, and we're both in Michigan so i could go pick it up from him, i just dont have all the money right now, and i know he wants to get rid of it [&:]thats why piecing together a kit would work better, and Tony said he didnt really wanna part it out either, which kinda sucks.

Gene, wtf is valve lash? I've never even heard of that before. The definiton i found was:

VALVE LASH:
This is the clearance between the base circle of the camshaft lobe and the camshaft follower or tappet.
