V3 heads for sale, lightly worked by engine tuner.

Recently had a new shim and tolerances checked etc.

Ran on a 500hp classic with no issues. Currently situated at Enginetuner in Plymouth.

£200

 

Are these sti heads?

 

I do t know to be honest. Ran fine on my 550+hp classic for a few years though so no issues with the power they can do

 

Bump. Need this shifted to pay for my new suspension....

 

Would these (or your others) be a worthwhile upgrade for a v5/6 Turbo 2000? Car is on 122k so looking at getting some bits together in case it goes bang!

 

The v3 ones would be, they have the best cams out of all the classic heads and along with some work by engine tuner some light porting and polishing etc they would be a nice upgrade.

The v4 ones have good cams too, however they have hydraulic lifters so would be a bit more limited in scope.

 

Do you have any pictures? Chers

 

Thanks - PM sent.

Paul

 

To my knowledge v3 or v4 heads won't fit your v5/6 with out changing the inlet Manifold as they have different stud layout

 

As already mentioned, it's not a straightforward swap of v3 or v4 heads into a V5/6 car, as the inlet manifold won't fit.

V4 heads don't have hydraulic lifters - WRX has shim over bucket, and STi has shim under bucket. Only V1+2 heads use hydraulic lifters

 

Well there you have it..... the other heads are v1/2.

It isn't that difficult to swap ph1 1.5/2 heads. I am running Newage heads now on my v3.

 

How many miles sims new shims and tolerances checked. Which type of shims did you fit?

 

Engine tuner did the work, fitted one new shim that was out of tolerance, all others were fine.

Probably didnt do more than 1k miles since having it checked.

 

Bump

 

Got any pics?

 

They are at engine tuner at the moment.

Its Just a pair of heads, nothing to see in any pictures. I can get some later on in the week when I pick the car up if you need some
