Engine code
Found something interesting on the swapped engine. As I told you guys before, when I saw the engine it had "3SFE" written on the block in orange chalk. Upon inspecting it again yesterday, I saw something on the side like an engine code or whatever, wherein it has a bar code. The characters below the bar code in large font were "F5S - V8E." I looked at 3SFE engines being sold at ebay and saw that the codes on the engine started with "F3S etc."
Now Im confused if my swapped engine really is a 3SFE or a 5SFE. O_o
Oh and for some good news, the engine doesnt lag anymore when it shifts from 2nd to 3rd gear. It's getting some serious pull now. Hehe, nice. But the shifting from 3rd to 4th gear still cant be seen, unless I drive the car on low speeds (35 mph speed limit roads - I counted the 'jerking' of the tranny) wherein the 4th gear finally engages.
