Howdy all,
I am looking for recommendations on a shop to look at the engine on my 57 TR3.
I live in St. George Utah (right on the Arizona border off of I15) and might
be able to get the car to Las Vegas about 125 miles away.
I blew the head gasket and the car overheated when I drove it the 300 miles
from Salt Lake City to St. George. I replaced the head gasket and it now
runs, but there is major blow by, a knocking sound and low oil pressure once
warm, leading me to believe I have some major bottom end issues. While I have
done most of the work on the car myself I donbt feel brave or qualified
enough to tear into the bottom end.
I had the Head and carbs professionally done and the car has 87mm pistons.
thanks,
Jeremiah
