Ok so toyota has the 3s block which is a great one we all know this .. but see as its te 3th make of the S block wouldn't the 5S be a better block ? ... why would toyota make the 5 th version of the block weeker then that of the 3rd? .... and while at it why would the internals be weaker ? it just would make any senne for toyota to not move up .. and keep there "toyota is for ever " thing going ... and then why would they put the 5S in so many cars and in the one that they sell the most ? unless it can take abuse like a pro ? then i'm thinkin my eingine has 221,XXX K miles on it and she is still strong ... and doesn't burn oil ? now what i want to try is doing is fine and camary with the SS and boost it the right way and see how much before it will blow up ....

what i was getting at this was what the blocks where designed for .... the 3s-fe/ge/gte for performance and the 5s-fe for ecomey .. yea its like comparing apples and oranges.. but its also like which one tastes better this time of year and apple or orange.... both are great mottor for what they are ment to do... so i was getting at which one does what its ment to do better??? and from thinking about it.. i say the 5s is better at what it does then the 3s is ... simply just by looking at which is in more cars ??

[right][snapback]301584[/snapback][/right] ok you can't go by just because the 5s is in more cars. toyota puts the 5s in more cars because they sell more econmy cars than they do performance hence why they have pretty much stopped makeing performance oriented cars, celica, supra, mr2 -------------------- |
