Head Differences?........... Options

[RedRkt01]

I didn't want to stuff this in the NA or FI forums for fear of a lack of input. It concerns both schools of knowledge.

I'm wondering what the differences are between the the 3rd Gen 3SGE head and the 3rd Gen 3SGTE head. They are different part numbers so there has to be a difference. I want to know what they are. I know about the cams and all that blah blah blah. Specifically, I am talking about the chunk of aluminum we call the head; Not it's sub-components.

Does anyone have input on the matter?

I don't know. But if I had to guess I think it would have something to do with a difference in the valves and/or springs, clearances for the cams and cam caps. Just because the part numbers are different does not necessarily mean the "chunk of aluminum we call the head" is the difference, most Toyota heads come fully assembled with the valves, springs, seats, keepers, cam caps, etc.
