thanks dan! i think i transfered all the 4g37 parts on the 4g32 head. (except for valves) so if im using the same 4g37 crank drive gear and cam gear, there shouldnt be any issue. i guess there really is a mismatch in the gearing. have to be more careful with this one. i guess city hunter had a bette...

yeah i transfered almost everything into the g32 head. rockers, camgear, camshaft. that is why i dont see any issues that needs to occur. im guessing i may be doing the installation of the belt incorrectly but im puzzled why is it hapening always on the 8th revolution of the crankshaft pulley. and i...

ok so this is what happened. i tried to test fit the 4G32 head on the 4G37 block. at camshaft and crank shaft TDC , i tried to turn the crankshaft several times. on the 8th revolution the crankshaft was stucked in the BTDC mark. it can neither be turned clockwise or counter. but the cam shaft was st...

what cam profile should i use then?
cam 6? i tried to see what camshaft i have on my head and it just states a "2R" not sure with that though.

forgot to tell say that the 4g37 sits on a 1987 lancer. *weird*

thanks mate.

i'll measure out the clearance and post it here for anymore inputs.
im just hoping that there would be no detonation due to high compression.

@ oldn64
did you measure the clearance also using the playdough method?
thanks sir!

thanks again. do we have standard clearance between valves and pistons? or as long as there is a clearance between them, then its ok? sorry for asking too much sh!t, its my first time working on an engine and i have nothing but the internet as reference. have my buddy to work with but he knows toyot...

yeah thats it. the red chalk technique!
im thinking of stuffing kid's clay on the valve before i bolt it to check if it will hit.
i guess the chalk method is easier and cleaner.

btw 4g37 head on a 4g32 = low comp
4g32 head on a 4g37 = high comp??

thanks again mate!

the 4g32 head sits perfectly on the 4g37 block. everything is the same except for the larger waterport hole in the 4g37 head. also the shape of the head of the 4g37 is kidney shaped as compared to the hemi look of the 4g32 head. do you guys see any issue that the valves will hit the piston? what can...

thanks for the welcome. i really have not tried it yet. i am still in the process of cleaning the 4g32 head. but from the discussions i have read here, some are suggesting to use 4g37 pistons and rebore their 4g32. unfortunately the 4g37 pistons are too high for a 32 and needs to be machined down. s...

im kinda new here but can you at least give me some hints? how about a 4g32 head sitting on a 4g37 block? will the piston hit the valves? im running on a 4g37 but i have damaged the 4g37 head so i want to use my spare 4g32 head. im not sure if the pistons will hit the valves or will have hi or low c...
