The cylinder spacing would be the same as 5S cranks have gone into 3S blocks before so that shouldn't be an issue, however, bolt holes and water/oilways are the trick.

The timing belts will be slightly different as the 5S-FE has a narrow head that only has one cam gear running off of the crank, whereas the 3S-GE has the two gears driven by the crank.

Pistons in 3S-GE have 'dome' type layout (sorta cut-outs for the valves). The 3S-GE pistons are probably the go as the angle between the valves on the 5S-FE head are different and hence the cut-outs for the valves will not match the head if I use 5S-FE pistons.

(yes - I've thought quite a bit about this)

Basically I'm going to go grab a 5S-FE HG tomorrow and match that up maybe, or take my 3S-GE HG around to the wreckers and check it all out on the 5S-FE head.

Still wouldn't mind someone posting up a pic of a 5S-FE head gasket though Smile

Cheers for the advice - I do need to check out the combustion height and volume, but unfortunately I haven't had the time to take my 3S-GE head off.
