ke30Rolla myles Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 well i got the chance of getting a 5k but don't know if it is worth changing engines over can any 1 help me make my mind? Quote
greenmac80 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 ^^^^ ;) :( ;) there is a big difference i reckon between a 4k ke30 and a 4k ke55. so a 5k ke30 would be worth it! my mate has a litace van and that does second ger chirpies and can get it doing donuts on bitumen! so they seem pretty good if your going to stick with k motors its the best striclty bolt in mod you can do! do it!

JiP Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 Your KE30 is a late 78?? If so than I'd assume it would be as good as a 5K KE55. Check inside your doors (behind your door trims) as I assume you already have intrusion bars just like the KE55 do. You will notice the difference tho when changing from 4K to 5K. Once you change you'll never want to go back. Quote
bLinded_ Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 ;) More torque, more power, and a bolt in replacement to the 4K. Really is a good upgrade to the 4K. If you "have the chance" to get one, and have the time/ability to do it, I'd recommend it. Quote
coln72 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 Make a difference - hell yeah lined up two ke20's one a modded 4k (big cam, worked head etc) and another with a slightly worked 5k (twin carbs) and the 5k ate it. Quote
AE80Rollaguy Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 injected 5k has a nice ring :> any one done it ? Quote
Taz_Rx Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 I can think of 4x efi 5k's off the top of my head, one supercharged, and 3 TURBO!! Quote
philbey Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 Just do it myles, its well documented on this site that they have more grunt etc etc. Quote
