hey guys
considering boosting the 5mge. few questions about BHG's
i know 7m's are notorious...5m's not as much but still there. is it bad design in the head or the block. i was wondering if you could use the 7m head on the 5m block or would it even be worth all the trouble???
would a metal gasket cure my problem if i used a 7mgte?
thanx
jeremy

All your 5M-GTE questions have been answered a hundred times over on the CelicaSupra forums:

Personally I don't think it's a very good idea, especially considering how cheap complete 7M-GTE's are these days, but it seems to be pretty popular with the Yanks.

whats a 7m-gte worth these days?
if you got a 7m-gte all you'd need to do is retorque the head to an adequate spec(MHG wouldnt hurt though)
