So, it wont hurt to run one with a stock Toyota carb.

OK, thanks. I was told that you couldn't and it still wont be as good. It might just have to do for a while though until i can get some money together.

Never had an issue though it is a pissy kittle Facet thing. Factory twins actually performed better when I fitted the electric pump.

 

Apart from air locks in the fuel system, there was never a prob when running a Holley red either.

well from what i belive, there isnt much in the way of diffrences between a 4k and 5k exept for the extra 200cc. you would get slightly more toque and power but not $500+ worth i don't think. i know a guy with a ke70 only has a 4 speed. but he has put on a desent set of extractors and full exhust (now a webber) minor suspension work and a set of 15x7 wheels and that thing gose off its tits!!! personaly i would go with the 4k, they are a lot cheaper to replace if need be. if you where going to swap for a k series i would go for the bigger 7k.

 

but as i said, healthy 4k with extractors and a carb or twin carbs, maybe a cam, wouldnt go too bad at all. may not get sideways in the dry but in the wet it would be all on.

 

i think some peolple on here are a bit anti drift :P

ah sorry, didnt realise there was 6 pages of discusion... only read the first

Ok, all... I picked up a KE70 on the weekend and it goes damn well. Finally realised why people spend money on these engines.

 

Thing is, I think it might be a 5k but not positive how to check?

 

I checked the lugs on the head and it has them below 1 and 4 spark plug. But now what? Where is the engine number on the block?

 

Cheers! :P

The number is in big numbers on the side of the block. It has its own little ledge so its hard to miss. Sorry i don't have a pic to show you.

Oh and I got the 4K out over the weekend and got a carby so its just about ready to go in. YEW

Thanks, thought it'd be obvious... was a bit hidden under shiteload of grease and the verdict isssss...

 

4K :P

 

Still goes damn well though! Very impressed.

New clutch, thanks to TURBO ROLLA. Getting new exhaust, just stock, tomorrow. Then its just a matter of lifting it in and bolting her up. Sorry no pics just yet but they are on there way.

Sorry, DRFT ROLLA my mistake. Haha :laff:

That's alright mate! i'll take the credit for the clutch :laff: Hope the conversion is going well :laff:

What's the going rate for a 5K these days?

mitch 13 i don't think that your 5k is going to be any good in your ke70, my 4age ae71 will fly past yours brother

 

thankyou.
