Is a 3sgte head on a 5sfe block worth it??
Or will it be better if you just swap the 3sgte in it?? And if it is worth it, any modifications?? Thanks Pete |

I had a RUNNING 5sgte up untill about 3 weeks ago..
The build is not as hard as it sounds but if your gonna do it, do it right the first time.. Get things like oil and water pumps new, new bearings gaskets, belts. The most important thing is engine management. Its a problem im having now. The other problem in doing it right is the $$$. I went a little crazy on parts i think but who cares... My advice to you would be to set a HP goal and go from there.. My goal is to be in the 700HP area.. Sounds crazy but thats what i want.. 5sgte test dyno  If you need any advice on your build just PM me..... Rikki --------------------  312whp with more to come.... |
