Pistons & crank developed from the F3, JTCC.
2,253cc, Φ87mm 94.8mm. CR unknown
the 5S-FE is
2,164cc Φ87.1mm 90.9mm

In & Ex cams: 256deg, 10.5mm lift

Factory:
In: 252deg, 9.8mm lift
Ex: 240deg, 8.2mm lift

Not a whole lot bigger, though it isn't higher reving. Would have been nice to see the specs of '@ 1mm valve lift' instead of advertised duration.

Also that price is from when it first came out in the 90's, so price has probably dropped.



It doesn't have any VVT-I. Seems a bit pointless sourcing a gen 3 3SGTE head and then 3SGE cams. Just get the gen 3 3S-GE head with the cams in it already, as the heads are pretty much identical.
