2LTE abuser
Interesting to know the 3B thickness; thanks.
It's almost like Toyota scaled the head based on displacement.
2.4litres/3.4litres = 0.7 (ie. 2LTE is 0.7 displacement of 3B)
0.7 * 8.5mm = 5.95mm
5.95mm is pretty close to the 5.7mm that Fantom measured.
Scaling doesn't work when talking the same pressure and temperature requirements though...FAIL Toyota.
As depressing as this is, and after reading hundreds of threads about people's bad luck with the 2LTE head, I'm going to keep running mine. I love my LJ78, and I love the way my engine runs after the improvements I made. Lots of power; runs cool. Truck is comfy and capable.
