So a while back, this was sorta brought up but i want more specifics on exactly how to do it....I think its a good performance option for the 5s-fe if its true. I remember 1bwilson said that you could take the intake manifold off a JDM 3s-fe and a 60mm throttle body and you could get gains of around 40 horsepower. I've searched everywhere online for more info on it, and havent seen much of anything. I would just like to verify that claim, and if its true.....
a.) Exactly what parts do you need to get it to work? Would the manifold be from the Curren's 3s-fe?? b.) Would about a 40hp gain be reasonable to expect? Just a little more knowledge on this would be greatly appreciated.

"I'm gonna assume this originally was intended as a head swap from a 3sge and not a 3sfe or an intake manifold swap. If i'm wrong... well... I just find it hard to believe that swapping economy "FE head" parts for economy "FE head" parts is gonna make an engine more as powerful as its performance counterpart. "
Sometimes things work out this way, WAAY back when, I was modify ing a 6 cyl ford falcon, found out if you took the cylinder head from a 170 cu inch Bronco 6 and put it on your 200 cu. inch motor, you upped the compression from 8.0 to 9.1 or so due to diff combustion chamber shape and also got approx 25% better airflow, just by using a different stock part. |
