Hey i have been investigating this purely out of interest, and there was a guy on here username: Matt from NZ who got a substantial way through doing a twin cam head conversion using a mazda mx5 head and was just wondering what the verdict was. DID HE GET IT RUNNING?!

Any one else ever get a twin cam head running?
What about feral he got pretty far through as well, anyone find out what head he was using?

cheers
Nick

Isn't the E series a single overhead camshaft design?
Go the twin cam.

that is correct, i don't recon thats too hard to do, once you have the pulleys mounted and oil holes sorted out it should be straight forward
