ed_ma61 Forums Junkie Location: Lost in the K hole Registered: May 2002	Re: 7mge vs 7mgte Wed, 02 July 2003 00:52 no idea when its going to run! so many little fiddly things i want to do before i drop it in! but then again, the 5m is dying in a large way...so i need to move on things the main fiddly bit to do is calculating the deck height, and piston valve clerances. im getting the piston domes machined, and have to make sure the pistons, deck, head, and valve reliefs all match up to ~ 0.005" i suspect some flycutting will be needed - even if olny 0.015" - 0.020" : its still pain in the arse. but i pick my new manifold and cam gears up in 3 weeks, and im getting an ex mani plate laser cut this week (thanks hydro!). then i can start sorting out the headers... BACK on topic: 7mge vs 7mgte - totaly different engines with different goals in mind. imho the 7mgte is kind of cheating - winding up the boost is a bit of a no brainer, much more finesse in getting an NA to work. but that takes LOTS of time and/or money. installation of the 7mgte is trickier, and maybe a little more $, and maintenance is more expensive. but theyre pretty much the same. comes down to what you want out of your project: an engine SWAP that goes, or a tinkering project with some thought... i chose the latter, and couldnt care less if the engine isnt as powerful as others cheers ed [Report message to a moderator]
