I heard the 3sgte valves work in the 5sfte build but I was hoping for something a little more performance wise. Anyone have experience with this? Wanting at least 350 hp.

We used to believe 3S-GTE valves would work on a Revision 1 5S-FE head (the one found in 90-92 MR2 and Celica, and very early Camry)

However, while they do fit, the shim clearance will go way out of spec (too much clearance) by simply installing the valves into the 1st rev head, as proven by MrTurrari (a respected 5S builder in the MR2 forums). I believe he found that the clearance was out by 30 thousandths (0.030") of an inch and pointed out that our shims do not come that thick, so it is impossible to get them back to spec using stock parts.

However, if you are using the 2nd Revision 5S-FE, the 2JZ-GTE valves fit and the clearance can be adjusted. Stock 2JZ valves are +1mm in our heads, so you could either go for expensive valves or a set of used valves in good condition. Either way, they'll work with the right machining.
