ep-beast Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 if you have two standerd engines u can use 5e bottom and put 4e head on it but youl need a 3e fylwheel to use your 4e clutch and you will havta buy a 5e clutch kit Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fozzie Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 You'll also need stronger rods as the 5e ones are like paperclips. You'd more than likely want 4e pistons too so that the compression ratio is lower. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ep-beast Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 5e rods are supose to be good thick strong rods over in jamaca they run the setup i said and getin serious power Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Been covered plenty of times http://www.toyotagtturbo.com/forums/showthread.php?9694-Whose-done-a-5E-Conversion Basically the only thing good from the 5E is the block and crank. Stock doesn't last long, the Jamaican's were using the thicker FHE rods which take more boost, the EFE rods are like chicken legs and you'll struggle to make anymore than 18psi reliably on them. They also swapped out the pistons for the 4EFTE ones for lower compression. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fozzie Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 5e rods are supose to be good thick strong rods over in jamaca they run the setup i said and getin serious powerAs Adam mentioned, it's the 5EFHE rods that are strong, they're absolute beasts. The 5EFE rods are waaaaaanky, hence me getting FHEs for mine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Adeeb1395 Posted July 21, 2013 Author Share Posted July 21, 2013 I am unlucky that fhe engine and its parts are very rare in my country so i would like to use the parts you guys have said depending which is available here... As i am using 5efe now,so i would like to save money and buy 4e parts i need instead of buying the whole engine, the parts are 4fte head,piston and con rod, 5e block and bottom 3e flywheel to adjust 4efte clutch Any other parts or thats it? Some ques: approx how much max boost it would be able to take when i build this engine using these parts?and what about fueling and managing the engine?and will i face any difficulties matching these parts together?

Adeeb1395 Posted July 22, 2013 Author Share Posted July 22, 2013 what if i stay with the 5e flywheel and use 5e clutch kit...is that possible?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Yeah thats possible. The clutch is only 200mm though instead of 212mm, and I think its pretty hard to find aftermarket/uprated clutches for the N/A. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
