    silvertop td42+t rebuild to turbo specs or headgasket repair

    coolant on drivers side of the block and gets warm on warmer days, no oil in coolant, no coolant in oil but pressurized coolant cap also. was thinking about buying a aftermarket assembled cylinder head and may aswell rebuild while it's there seeing I do have a little bit of blow by. all the gq rebuild kits I can find are non turbo and has anyone done this in vic with a rough price

    Definitely not a welch plug or something else leaking? They're not known for doing a head gasket if looked after, at least in my limited knowledge.

    They do have blow by though, unless it's excessive I wouldn't worry too much about that.. It's possible it's been overheated if it's done a head gasket though, so may still be worth a full rebuild.
