I blew my head gasket last night Well, I already have the top end torn down and ready for reassembly, but I need to locate either a head gasket or a top end gasket set for my 1G-GTE motor. Can anyone help or point me in the right direction? Is there any Japanese Toyota dealer that people use here for new parts? I called a place in the UK, and they're asking me for chassis numbers and such, but my car is an American Toyota, so my chassis numbers will do no good at all. Please someone help, I need to get this thing running!!!!
Thanks- Armin

Good luck... from what ive heard, this engine is rather rare in the USA
Try calling big Toyota dealer's service centers.
Just keep ringing around until one will help you... they should be able to get the part in from Japan if there isnt one avaliable locally.
Be perpared to pay top $$ though.
