WhiteOut Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 No, my LQ1 isn't broken. At least not for now...but reading that article posted by Heza got me thinking; What exactly is the differance between the 91/92, 93-95, and 96/97 engines? The article specifically mentions that many of the ports and valves are larger on the 96/97 but it doesn't say by how much or really mention any specifics. Is there really that big of a differance between the engines??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vegeta Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 The valves are allthe same size, but the exhaust valves have a different head on the 96/97. The intake ports on the heads are identical for all years, but the intake manifolds are larger on the 96/97. Exhaust is different shaped as well. http://www.60degreev6.com/index.php?p=pages&pid=149 The cams have different timing in 96, and the use smaller lifters but im not sure on their weight or design since I havent had a lifter to look at yet.

Do you think I could safely do a 13* without danger? Any way of finding out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vegeta Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 I wouldnt do 13 degrees on a 96. I forget the exact spec now but its 3 degrees diff on one cam and 4 on the other. The specs are on the 60V6 site if you wanna look at it and figure it up. Im about to go to sleep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
