3.0 engine parts
Would like to hear form you guys about the quality of parts from engnblder.
The prices look great. I see a lot of post from people using these parts. I am
going to do a complete rebuild instead of just head gaskets. I just want the
straight - up skinny on engnblder parts and how these parts compare
to other major brands (Fel-pro,Sealed Power,JE,ect...)

Well, engnbldr supplies Rock, Top Line, Hastings, and King parts. All quality. I've used them in both of my Toyotas, to varying degrees, with great results.

I went all OEM. The service is the best ever at engnbldr, but my machine shop guy did not like the parts from there. I don't know enough about engines to form my own opinion, but I trusted my machine shop when they recommended I get something better. For me the extra money was worth the piece of mind of knowing I had parts from Toyota.

I ordered the Full Gasket Set from engnbldr to replace my head gaskets and all the associated gaskets and seals. Excellent quality and I probably got more gaskets and seals than if I had bought it from Toyota, and it cost less!
Under the Advanced Search I typed in engnbldr and searched titles only and here are four of the top five threads:
head gasket.....engnbldr?
engnbldr
Engnbldr (in Customer Feedback for Vendors)
ENGNBLDR Rocks!

i did the full engine rebuild kit for my 3.0 as well. everything has been great! THe one thing i wish it had that it doesn't is a new water passage/timing belt tensioner.
the marks on the timing belt are unnecesary as long as you make sure the timing marks on the cams and crank line up correctly after 2 rotations after install
i ended up not using some of the paper type gaskets because the FSM said to just use the toyota sealant (FIPG) for most pieces.
Putting the rebuilt 3.0 in tonight if everything goes well and i'll let you know how it all works
