| The DE is a 52J head on a 53J block - the DET has a 53J head on a 53J block.
This would suggest that the DE bottom end is the same, but never having had it apart I couldnt say for sure - I did hear talk of there being no piston oil squirters on the DE.
The 52J head has a completely different port design to any of the other heads I've seen (Red top high port, VVT and GTiR) and when he was doing the valve seat work on my head Ben@Angelworks said that the DE head looked as if it had 'superior downdraft' to the other SR heads, I'm sure that this is a good thing, but I can't honestly say I know what it means.
The DE also has a distributor on the side of the head, I tried my DET CAS in there but it was not a perfect fit so there are differences there - PhatBob sad techie fact #40372: The DE CAS disk shaft diameter is 0.5mm larger than the DET one. |
