Head removal and install thanks to a broken t-belt

[1993TalonTsiAWD]

Yes, I couldn't stay away from DSM's too long so I bought another one. I miss mine, but this is a 1990-91 laser with 100,000 miles, and it's manual, the only problem it's not AWD. Anyway it's in good condition, except for the fact the t-belt slipped some teeth. I got it for 850 and it didn't smoke or grind in any gear. I have tore down the valve train(cams,cam gears,lifter, and rockers)and exhust mainifold. I'm having a lot of problems with the intake mainifold. I can't get to the bottom bolts. I got all the top ones off, just stuck on the bottom ones. I also need to knoiw what tool I need to get the head bolts off. They have what looks like a allen wrench head. I looked in my chiltons, but thats never any help. Also if you know where I can get detailed instructions on how to remove it that would be great. The chilton instuctions suck, because they don't tell you were things are or how to remove them, just say to remove this or that part. I know valves will be bent, I just hope no pistons are damage.

Can anyone recamend a place to send my head in to get the works done, including removing a few exhust studs(don't ask )

I plan to get a cometic head gasket, and ARP bolts. I also need to know where to find turbo to exhust mainfold gasket(square one), and intake and mainfold gaskets. I also need to get all the parts to do the t-belt and balance belt eliminator kit. I also need the 4 turbo bolts that bolt the turbo to the exhust mainfold which will be replaced by a EVO turbo and mainifold.

I'm trying to get it done ASAP because I want to drive it very bad.


Thanks for any help Derek

Well I got the allen head tool I think your supposed to use. It's 10mm, but I can't get them off. I've only tried one,but I can't get it off.

I really need help here

Thanks Derek

Dude - get an Impact Grade 1/2inch drive 10MM Bit for your 1/2 inch Breaker Bar.

Pull Head, Intake & Exhaust Manifolds as an assembly.

I just recently had this problem with getting the head off of my parts car. I broke, and stripped all of my normal allen wrenchs that woudl fit the bolts. So what i did was went to Auto Zone and bought a socket that had a Allen wrench attached to it, one that woudlnt come out. Think it was like 5$ or so. But that worked great.

Oh and of course a big ass breaker bar

Damn, I just got done rebulding my engine. I wish I would've thought of taking it all off as one. Good info for next time .
