Hey does anyone know if a 3k or 4k head will fit on any of the newer 1.6 liter engines and how many mods and how hard it would be to get in a ke35

What would you gain?? It would still be a pushrod non-crossflow singlecam leaning-over piece of crap...

 

You'd be better to try and fit a newer head onto a 4K block, but seeing as they are all belt-driven twincams it is not easy.

Ok thanks, what is the best or easiest to getmotor to swap a 3k for?

and the reason behind it was to get slightly mor hp and not have to get it engineers certified depending on how different it looked...

In that case, throw a 5k in it

that was a thought but i couldnt find any in nsw with a price tag that was way over the top...

If 5k is too hard, I got good results from a 4k with 32/36 downdrafft weber (off a wrecked alfa) mounted on adapter plate to standard manifold and extractors/exhaust. The head was planed to bump compression and I fitted an electronic dizzy out of a hiace. Cost around $600 including exhaust done at mate's rates. It did rev well but at the end of the day it was still a 4k.

 

Any more mods than that you're better off with a 5k as they are a bit more torquey.

 

Now have 4age and wouldn't go back to k series. (sorry k series fans)

What did you do with that motor?

and you can get a 4k board and its the same as a 5k?

That motor was sold in the last ke30 I had.

 

Not sure what you mean by 4k board.

*bored out

 

it can be to fit 5k pistons.

Being a new member it may be some benefit to you to use some of the forums resources like the faq and search function.

Surely a 5k can be found for a reasonable price. Last one I got cost $100

The last two I got were $100

ok well i will look a little harder thanks guys
