Lol

@@krispykruzer nice nervous laughter

4b11s are weaker than the 6 bolt 4g63t 6 bolt blocks all the way.

@@Ryan_1997 no they are not

Its the amount of air the heads flow, somewhere in the 300cfm with stock ports. VCT to help with low end torque aswell as VTEC, small cam for low rpm, big cam for high rpm, very smooth and linear engine thats very eager to rev, 8500rpm redline from factory, 9000rpm redline with a tuned ecu or higher in built motors, bottom ends are also very robust, well known to take 320-340wkw on completely stock engines (stock head, stock bottom end completey unopened) with boost on e85, ive had a look at the bottom ends also and noticed the girdle is tied into the block, similar to that of a plazmaman billet girdle that is made for an SR20. After playing with RBs, SR20s including doing a VE head swap and now having done a K series build i can say the engineering put into the K series is what makes it a great motor.

The simple fact that it’s not a 4g is what makes a k series so grate B series for the win tho

@@JAP16V K sure, B ? lol.

@@TurboVisBits Ray Loulach know's what he is talking about K20/K24 are great motors but Mostly Best for the N/A scene but when it comes to Boost B Series is Defs King... Go look at Rays Channel.. he Loves his Civic's owns a EG with the Plates 4GLOL, makes over 1000fwhp on a Hub dyno, Pretty sure he also owns an Evo of his own,

@@jjsorenavki7005 Worlds fastest h pattern in the world is grannas 2jz supra second is boostin performance 4g63 talon

supply a 3S and they possibly will

Florida Man wouldn’t be hard I’d imagine the block is the same as the RAV4 and celica

More importantly the 5sfe as they have true siamese bores the length of the cylinder unlike the 3sge/3sgte blocks, hence the common 5sgte builds seen in the MR2/Alltrac community. All 5 generations of 3sge/3sgte blocks have a 30-40mm cavity between bores at the top of the cylinders, (I assume for more cooling surface area where the most heat is generated and to create a more interconnected coolant flow path) which is the reason for the common cracking in builds over 3-400wkw (obviously turbo/fuel/application dependant, cylinder pressure vs RPM associated with these power levels being the defining reason for failures) ALL generations of 5sfe and some 3sfe feature the full siamese cylinders (some 3sfe cars used 3sgx blocks as they are fundamentally interchangable, unlike the larger bore 5sfe 87mm vs 86mm Depending on the location and time of production, due to over production of 3sge/3sgte blocks relative to demand, the cavity can be seen through the front frost plug holes if you are looking to confirm what block is actually being used..) there is also a well known cracking issue around the head bolt hole nearest the water pump, Toyota added extra material to all S series blocks in this area from 1996, these are known as 'straight edge blocks' and can easily be identified by the straight edge and generally thicker area around the deck face by the water pump instead of the previous generations where it followed the contour of the cylinder and a bulge is seen where the bottom of the head bolt/stud would bottom out. Again due to old stock being used, not all 1996 blocks feature this and it's generally accepted that it is not a guarantee untill 1997-8 depending on who you ask. There is also word about American cast 5sfe blocks (known as 'square boss' due to the raised square areas where the freeze plugs are located) which are rumored to have thicker cylinders/decks but I have seen 0 evidence proving this unlike everything else mentioned here.

@@joelucas6601 I have a '96 GT4 that has all the stock features of the improved '96 version. Possibly need to get my block checked!

All 3sge/3sgte blocks are weak in-between cylinders, if you're shooting for over 300wkw I'd suggest finding a 1997+ 3sfe/5sfe or you'll be cracking bore eventually

Dale W it is cast iron The other blocks we mentioned are aluminium so can’t compare to them

@@MotiveVideo Thanks mate, I must be tired asf I thought he said cast alloy with sleeves. Also just want to say GTR festival was fkn awesome, drove my RS4 Stagea down from Brisbane. Worth every penny.

@@MotiveVideo hey Andrew is there any chance of testing the new heritage nismo rb26 block that went back into production ?

they dont test aluminum blocks, only cast iron

You can't do it

I think the only way to make a standard block stronger would be to do interference fit sleaves, which requires the original one to be milled out very precisely then replaced which is what high level diesel guys do

Can take .100" overbore and still never needs grout. Can't seal a headgasket but eh

Even a 265 hemi would be good

teamneverlost agreed but cutting it open is still the way to find out what is really going on and worth it for long term development

@@MotiveVideo For sure at the cost it's probably worth it for r&d, but if there's ever anything you don't want to or can't cut open these sets can help in seperating spurious indications.

I bet the 6bolt is even beefier

bingoberra18 I want to see this info too. I’ve got a built 6 bolt VR4 motor that was built for 700hp. APC ran the 6 bolt deep into the 9’s consistently with no issues also. I was always told the 6 bolt block was much harder and thicker.

if the block has a vin number stamped on it they could tell you what year it was i'm also curious...

This was my question

They dont really suit our Motive market. These arent cheap videos to make either.

@@MotiveVideo however they are cheap engines to get ahold of, it could also expand your audience(more so when I'm guessing that most of your audience is Australian anyway) and the 5l at least has been a rival motor within a shared chassis as the RB(VL) and you could go over why the RB is often the better choice and ecotecs have been proven to make some big numbers too

Shane Graves unless you send them one I’d be really surprised if the did not exactly a common motor here

@@carbonfiber492 yeah Im not suprised, its a shame as i do have a block which would be perfect but i expect the postage wouldnt be cheap from the UK and back again
