mr_K Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) Cheers.Will my valves (top of valve stem) cause any clearance issues if i swap the buckets straight?My forged 4efte is tapping and im going ahead and trying to swap the 4efe buckets and cams into.it to stop the tapping, as the 4efe had no tapping problem i think it should work.Thanks Edited August 18, 2015 by mr_K Quote Link to post Share on other sites

5e colin Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 if you plant over the cams and matching shims it will still need rechiming mate best to rechim current head because sizes will be diferent Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fiddlersport Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 I did the re-shimming on my old 4age engine time consuming but done right and you get nice tappet free engine horrible when it ticks so loud on idle good luck dude Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mr_K Posted August 22, 2015 Author Share Posted August 22, 2015 (edited) I swapped them straight over the other day and it didn't.go.too well,I had to refit my old ones back on amd now when the engine is cold is has a slight misfire until its.warmed up. Timing is correct i double checked.Are these clearances correct for a 4efte?Intake: 0.006-0.010Exhaust: 0.012-0.016Also what shall i set them to? To the tightest spec? Or inbetween the two?Thanks Edited August 22, 2015 by mr_K Quote Link to post Share on other sites
