Postby rwd_mayhem » Sun Aug 28, 2005 7:39 pm

ive got a 3k-h that im putting in my starlet, what wud happen if i put the 2k head on the 3k? i know putting 3k head on 4k ups the compression, but does it work 4 2k to 3k as well?

how hard is it to put a new head on? bolt off, bolt on?

Probably better off ditching the 3k and going for a 4k

you may need to use the 2k pushrods, but other than that, bolt off, bolt on

Forget about the 2k. Take a look at the size of the valves.
