Engnbldr motor questions: Stock or not???
So I',planning on putting a new motor in the truck this coming week. I'm going through Engnbldr to get the Longblock, but I'm wondering abo9ut doing his Street/RV head. This is a 22RE BTW.
Is anybody running this head? I'll be running stock everything else. Has anyone runningthis set-up or head had problems with knocking or fuel issues due to the cam and higher flow rate?
Should I just go stock?
This is my DD 89 4Runner, I need reliability more than I need the extra grunt, but I'd like to find both. I'll be re-gearing and going to 33x9.50's in the neart future as well.
Cheers
Dave

I have gone through engine builder for the three 22re engines that I have done. I got the topline head that he offers with the oversized valves. I had to have them re do it after 20 thousand miles, but I sucked a bunch of water through the engine so It wouldn't surprise me if it was due to that. But they did it for free. New valves, valve seats re ground etc. No problems so far.
