1kz-te Cylinder Head Crack
Hi guys I have a 03' hilux with a 1KZ-TE engine and need to fix a cracked head on the old girl. Does anyone know of a good place to get a recon head or even a new one? A lot of people have told me to patch it up and sell it but can't bring myself to do that lol spent alot of time and money on it over the years and want to get it back going again. It's got long range tank, ARB bar work all round and heavy duty bull bar, hella spotties, UHF radio, ARB canopy, cargo draw system, rhino roof rack, water tank, Dual battery and OME shocks. I have lots of plans for more mods in the future and trips to suit but need to get the motor back in good working order. I'm in Perth WA, if anyone has advice or links to other sites that would be great. Posts: 3 Joined: Mon, 25 Feb 2013 9:10 +0000 •.
1kz Engine Problem

Yes, AMC do cylinder heads for the 1KZs. I use them all the time as they are good quality and made out of pure aluminium ingot. Unlike the genuine Toyota ones which are made in China and are made out of recycled material. They are crap, the genuine Toyota cylinder head that is. You can get the complete AMC head for about $1,385 from SMS Diesel Spares including the cam. The only thing it doesn't come with is the inlet and exhaust manifold studs, the gasket and the head bolts. You will need a set of good stud removers to get the studs out of the old cylinder head.
