Guest Enzo Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 some might slate me but i wouldent bother to be honest, the only way they could ever findo out is if they stripped the engine, as underneath the manifold is the only clue Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kroozin Posted May 16, 2008 Author Share Posted May 16, 2008 yeh i was thinking that but wasnt sure on the forum guidelines on what (not) to say. Anyway just blame someone else It was done before i got it... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StarletRick Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 all 4/5e heads are the same casting wise. i have had all different variants of them (4efe, 4efte, 5efhe and 5efe) they are all the same. the 4efe springs are pretty weak and wont let you rev over about 7 as they start floating the valves. 5efe is pretty much the same. the 4efte head has slightly stiffer springs, they rev to 8 without trouble.the 5efhe has stiffer springs (like the fte) and also the exhaust cam on the ACIS/Cynos variant has a slightly higher lift.ive got a set of FTE valve springs laying about somewhere, you can have them if you like/i can find them. they are the only difference between the fe and the fte heads.hope that helps.
