Now I've got everything opened and I'm considering just removing the head for further inspection. Does anyone know if there is a fuel rail pressure relief on these? I can't seem to find one up top.

There is not pressure relief valve, but you can remove the injectors and just leave them hanging.

Oh yeah, for the head bolts you'll want to buy a TOY-105 head bolt tool.

Yeah I just popped the injectors off, getting O-rings anyways. A lot of little annoying things Toyota leaves off their cars. A Toy-105 tool?!?!?!? I thought they were T-50 head bolts, thanks for saying that before I ripped 'em up!

try and try

here's where I stand currently.
I have an idea for a two piece spring compressor that I will try to fab at work tonight. I'm hoping to use the journal cap bolts as a press for the springs. here's a template I made up. There will be one of these on each screw....

Well, it was a good idea until I lost air pressure and dropped a valve

Guess the head is coming off....
