Okay - first of all, the head on the 5S-FE is not exactly shit - it was designed in a certain way to get fuel economy out of it.

Secondly - using the 5S-FE pistons is a bad idea, as the crown on the 5S-FE pistons is *completely* different to the crown on the 3S-GE pistons and given the different angle of the valves in the head, it would be a bit of a pain to use the 5S-FE pistons.

Thirdly, the crankshaft on the 5S-FE is reputedly stronger than the crankshaft from the 3S-GE - I have nothing to back that statement up though, however you have to recognise that it was developed a couple of years after the 3S-GE so it is likely that it is better constructed.

But, if you have attempted and/or done this 'conversion', I'd love to hear of any actual figures/problems that you may have encountered Smile
