so i need to replace the head gasket and the timing chain, i understand that engbldr kits are reliable but has anybody tried some of the kits on ebay, the two sellers im interested are:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Toyot...mZ150324009605
this kit includes timing chain, metal guide, timing cover, oil pump for $88
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Timin...Q5fAccessories
- this place is cheap too and i think i can local pick up

so i was wondering if anyone could give me any feedback on these two companies. also in the enginebuilder timing kit are both the chain guides metal?
also if got milkshake and my coolant is low, and my timing chain is loosey goosey, theres probably a good chance i need a new timing cover?

 

I can't say much for those companies, but I know that I'm usually pretty happy with gaskets from Toyota...

The real questions are:
How much do you wanna bet those gaskets are inferior to Toyota parts, and
Do you mind doing the job again a few weeks later?

You can do the absolutely bestest rebuild ever, but if you put in crap parts you get a crap job. You already know that gaskets are a weak link. Why take any chances with them?

 

Put crap parts in, truck will run like crap and then you will be buying engbldr anyway. Do it right the first time.
