EVL 13T Posted September 29, 2008 Report Posted September 29, 2008 I had a spare engine lying around (4k). So my head gasket blew on my car and i'd thought I'd pull the head off my spare motor and get it freshened up before i replaced the gasket. When I dropped the head off at the machine shop the machinest said I had a 5k head, I'm just wondering if there will be any problems if I put this 5k head on my 4k engine or will it push the compression up and gain some power?

beerhead Posted September 29, 2008 Report Posted September 29, 2008 Does the motor have dished pistons? Could be a 4K-U. Compression is way to high if the motor has flat top pistons. Quote
