Is anyone here with the vg33 using v52 heads with it?I read in the first post that it would be advised not to use the 21v or 85e heads but not v52's?"If your car cant do a burnout from a 60mph rolling start, then your engine needs more work."

That would be awesome because then I could just bolt mine on and not have to mess with the liters (hybrids)."If your car cant do a burnout from a 60mph rolling start, then your engine needs more work."

I'd suggest using OWO heads, but you would probably be fine with the V52s.- VG30DET (HE341) 86 300ZX - 1982 280ZX Turbo - Headered NA 1986 300ZX 2+2 - 2000 Xterra - -

Further info,if using a 33 out of something with a front sump (quest), the dipstick must be moved.the hole towards the front of the block is used for front sump.there is just a plug in the hole that needs to be used further back that can be punched out.no drilling required.this may have been already covered but I had to take my oil pan back off because I did not realize this until I went to install the dipstick tube."If your car cant do a burnout from a 60mph rolling start, then your engine needs more work."
