AMC Complete Built Cylinder Head 3 Litre 1KZTE & 1KZT

Q; Does the new cylinder head come with the half moon plug?
A; No it doesn't so please make sure you remove the half moon plug that is fitted to the cylinder head at the end of the camshaft on the original head and install onto the new head.

Q; Is the cylinder head brand new?
A; The Cylinder Head casting is manufactured by AMC and is brand new, what's more it is the thicker type casting as per Toyota design. The internals are professionally refurbished, any components not within tolerance are replaced.

Q; Do I need to send my old unit back first?
A; No, we would normally advise shipping the AMC Head kit to your selected address first, that way any studs or the important half-moon alloy casting cap that is at the rear of the head behind the cam can be swapped over from your old unit ensuring you have everything to build your new head before we come to collect the return unit.

Q; Why do you need the old unit back if the casting is cracked?
A; Well the unit supplied would have refurbished internal components but in the AMC casting, items such as cam, valves, followers, springs, collets etc are all required in return, the casting is simply scrapped, its just easier for a customer to put the old head back in the box the new one comes in ready for RoughTrax to make collection.

Q; What is the surcharge if I don't send a head back?
A; Firstly, please let's not get to this situation, we need to return heads in order to help other customers that are desperately seeking to keep their vehicles running with this kit. However, If we do not receive a head in return then RoughTrax reserve the right to charge an additional amount up to £200, please ensure your fitter does not throw away the return.

Q; Can you ship this kit to another Country?
A; I'm afraid not, in order to supply the service we need the old core unit in return, past experience when we had shipped outside the UK has found us being left short of internals to build a head ready for the next customer.

Q; How does the exchange work?
A; Simple, we ship you the AMC Head kit then once you are up and running, (that way ensuring you have all your components required for re-build), please re-box the old unit into the original box the new head comes in, then give us a call and we will make all the necessary arrangements to make a collection......that can also be from a different address such as your garage.

Q; Is there a time limit on the return?
A; Ideally we would like a return within 2 weeks, that way the service is kept "ticking over" in order to help future customers.
Depending on demand, from time to time Head kits can be in short supply, if that is the case we can always make arrangements to collect your own unit and turn around with 48 Hours.

Q: What is the head bolt torques?
A: Head bolt torques are provided within the AMC bolt kit

Q: What is the Injector torque?
A: 54nm (40 ft-lbf) is provided from Toyota data. Toyota also highlight that:
