As some may know the engine I bought to put into my paseo has a cracked head. I did not know this prior to installation as it is only a hairline crack.
I have a complete 5e-fe engine sitting here too.
I understand that the 5e and 4e heads are the same so I intend to use my 5e one.
Now I plan on buying the rebuild gasket set from Speedvision, including head gasket, and a whole shit load of other seals to do the job properly.
I need to know what else need to be done.... I'm talking valves, camshafts, timing belt etc.
Anyone fancy giving a few moments of their time to run though what exactly needs doing.
If I do get down to it myself, I'll have a friend (mercedes mechanic) to help me, but do I need any special tools or anything that I should know.
I wait with baited breath for your answers my friends!
