reasons I DONT like the 3TGTE (anymore)
- expensive to initially purchase
- old design (8 valve head) pushrod block
- heavy, large block & head
- weak pistons
- not as reliable at high revs (7k+)
- antiquated fuel only computer
- hard to source parts, read: expensive!
- noisy valvetrain/timing chain setup
- bulky distributor & twin coil setup, 8 plugs
reasons i DO like the late model 4AGZE
- cheap! & far more common than 3TGTE
- shares many parts with naturally aspirated 4AGE
- compact design, light weight
- 16 valve non-interference head
- better fuel & ignition computer
- direct fire ignition
- many aftermarket parts available
- forged, ceramic coated pistons from factory
- love to rev! restricted only by supercharger setup
just my opinion. I'm sure others have different experiences, both good & bad with each motor.
Cheers
