Ryan-11 Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 The 4e rods wont fit in the 5e engine, you'll either need forged pistons and forged 5e rods or put the 4e pistons on the 5e rods. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 as above the bore size is the same between the 4e and 5e but the 5e block is longer by around 12mms i think?. the rods WILL fit but they will be to short to acutualy give the full stoke.you also need to use the 4efte head or aftermarket valve springs as the stock 5e springs are to weak to take boost Quote Link to post Share on other sites
