If you have a 3fe Block can you put a 2f head on it and make it a 3f ish? I kinda want to buy another engine block to rebuild as a project/back up engine. ANd honestly to keep me busy. The 3fe blocks seem to be cheep. Its kinda the opposite of what people seem to do though. This is more of a curiosity I guess Not looking to why or why nots just can it be done and it run?
 
Got around to stripping the 2F head down.
Looks like it is not bad but one of the valve seats is a little crappy. May try to polish it myself. I am trying not to spend much on this experiment.
The head was full of trash. :lol:

The video is after I had already sprayed a ton of air through it and gotten about 5 pounds of rust and garbage all over the shop.

I set the thing in 5 gallons of EvapoRust along with some other stuff that got wet and flashed at the GSMTR "swap meet." Love that EvapoRust.
