Re: 3S-GE qs (again!)	Mon, 12 August 2002 03:13

I was wondering about a few things. Has anyone ever swapped a st165 3sgte block in to a ff celica? I was hoping to find out if the axle will attach to the back of the block. I dont feel like trying to line it up and making a bracket.I would be concerned that I would not get the angle right. Has anyone ever tried fitting the internals from a 5sfe inside a 3sfe or gte block? I understand that the stroke was changed to get the extra displacement. This leads me to wonder about rod length, piston pin height etc. For example I know that the deck height of the 7AFE (longer stroke)is higher than its 1.6l brother. I understand that the deck height is the same on the 5s and 3s engines. Random thoughts to follow:(fishing for input) Lots of ideas are swimming around in my head right now, Where would I be if I fit 5S crank with shorter 3sg(t)e rods and pistons with the idea of building a low compression turbo motor. Can I get a bit more displacement? Would I need a spacer plate on the block to stop the pistons hitting the head? would a thicker H/G suffice? I don't need the engine to live at the redline for hours on end, but I realize there are limits when you stroke an engine. I have most of the parts to do some trial and error, I would appreciate anyone's thoughts. (I do not know if it is preferred here to have multiple 3sg Q and A in one thread, or if it would be better to start a new thread-pls tell!) Edit: I guess the longer rods would only move the pistons higher in the cyl's. I believe piston speed would be lower though. [Updated on: Tue, 13 August 2002 00:14] [Report message to a moderator]
