el_bandido Posted June 20, 2018 Author Share Posted June 20, 2018 No, the two heads are different and I need to know if I can use my existing block or if getting a complete 1jz vvti would be the only real option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 If the head physically fits as I believe it does one would then have to plumb an external oil feed to the VVTi solenoid, which I have done a few times on 2JZ VVTi heads on none VVTi 2JZ blocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el_bandido Posted June 21, 2018 Author Share Posted June 21, 2018 Thanks Chris, that's probably all I need to know. Just out of interest, what's the ballpark cost for that kind of head swap work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Engine in or out of car? Just swap heads or heads and ancillaries? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el_bandido Posted June 21, 2018 Author Share Posted June 21, 2018 Don't have a preference on whether it's in or out of car, ancillaries and belt would be required also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
