Rev 1 to Rev 3 head just the other month.. Rev 3 head gasket fitted with no issues ! :thumleft:

One thing I will say, its not just quite plug and play.. few things need to be modified to fit .. ie... The bypass / water matrix needs the bracket cutting off that attaches to the original head as it makes contact with the rev 3 head....

Rev 3 head.. you need all components as mentioned... makes your life easier.... cam gears, manifolds, timing tensioner.. cam cover, throttle body ( thanks Chris ! :thumleft: ) catch can, even the injector rail... but can ustilise the earlier belt.... it'll all work... Most importantly is you need the sensor array / swirl pot - this is unique to the rev 3 head and cannot be interchanged....

Need to bend the oil feel pipe to the turbo partically, its brittle at the flange.. so caution when doing this...

Benefits - Gas Flow !! You increase gas flow through the engine, you can achieve anything ! :thumleft:
