Thanks for the reply norbie,
As I am looking to circuit race this & want it to be mega-reliable (ie not a "grenade") ...so I would be looking to rebuild the 3S-GTE anyway with forged pistons, ARP rods, bolts, cams, o-ring, custom manifolds etc...
I would have thought that by the time I did this to a 3T-GTEU vs a 3S-GTE & brought the capacity of the 3T-GTEU up to that of the 3S-GTE, that the difference would only be in the head flow between the 2 engines.... & while the 3S-GTE would give me more power, I think that both of them would give me more than 300 rwhp / 430 fwhp... just that the 3S-GTE would give me more.
Am I wrong in thinking that? I would be interested to compare what the max HP that someone has got out of a 3T-GTEU vs a 3S-GTE really is. If there was only 50 HP difference in the 2, I would be better off sticking with the 3T-GTEU, & not having to change over everything, & could put that money towards something else.
What are your thoughts? Do you know of anyone who has faced a similar choice?
