these are the ones on my 30

hey mate i know this is an old thread but i was having a look at my old 5k head that was on a flat top piston 5k and the casting number is 81. just posting it here as i couldnt find info as to what it was on the faq

Hmmm thanks for the tip rollla ill try it out tommorow and see how it goes.

I put the front bar back on and it doesnt look good so ill probably leave it off.

Just got my wheels from Brisbane, Work Equip E01's 14x6.5 with 0 offset. Also got some advan 195/60/14 semislicks on them. The tyres are hitting the front guards but i got some replica te27 flares which should fix that problem. Enjoy :kiwi:

thats soo cool :kiwi: i love it

Hey guys i know its been a while but ive done heaps to the old corolla and its looking great. Ive chucked in a 5k motor with stage 2 cam, lightened flywheel, extractors,3k head and twin su's. The car runs really well, sounds awsome and is better than i expected. Ive recently finished it and just need to get the carbies tuned to get it running really nice. While ive been doing th motor i also found some fender mirrors of ebay, garden edging, and some twin headlights off an old crown i saw down at the wreckers. Hope you guys like it cause I'm loving it! Steve

Hey guys ive recently bought a stage 2 cam (265 adv dur) for my 5k and am not 100% sure on a couple of things for it. I have scaned the faq on installing a cam and have found that the lifters have to be faced so that the lifters/cam lobes are not damaged. Is it possible to remove the lifters and get them faced at any machining shop? Also i have a spare 4k motor and have removed the rocker arms and pushrods. Is it possible to use these parts on the 5k head with hydro lifters as the rocker arms are adjustible? I am abit of a noob to this kind of stuff so all advice or info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

Hey guys I'm building a 5k atm however i am unsure on what inlet manifold to use. I have the standard 5k manifold however i am using a head that has been ported and i am also using a bigger carby(32/36 weber). Will i have to use a different manifold with bigger ports or can i still use the standard one? Cheers.

Hey guys i know which cam i want to get, and i have looked at the faq and the cam that I'm certain on getting is the ce701, but not 100% sure. The reason ive opened this thread is to ask where i can buy a camshaft alone and then put it in the motor myself, instead of taking it to mechanics and paying a fortune. Sorry if i have asked the question to vaugely.

hey guys I'm just wondering were i can get a good cam fort my 5k motor in sydney. Thanks

Hey mate i had the exact same problem with my car and the coil was the problem, so ye I'm guessing its the coil.

hey mate I used sigma gh lower contorl arms on my ke30 and it gave a small and good amount of camber. Not sure if this will work with a 10.
