4age/ze heads

Postby NOLAW » Wed Sep 19, 2007 12:03 pm

im building a RWD 4agte (4agze block) and iv been offered a rebuilt 4age 16v head for a prety dam good price and im just wondering if its worth getting to use or am i better off sticking with the ze head that i have at the moment?

cheers

the heads are the same between the 4agze/4age.
only thing to look at is the ports, ie small port and bigport. need to make sure any head you swap matchs the manifolds.

so if this head is all flash and dandy with new parts, then yeah why not if the price is right
but if theres nothing wrong with what you have, save ya $$

how many kms on your current head? how complete was the rebuild? you'd want to make sure it hadn't had anything flash done to it like planed to bump compression.

like revhead said make sure intake ports are the same as your manifold
