Yeah I will probably get slammed for this, do a search ect ect but whatever

Do the 6G74's in 3rd Gens have interference heads or not?

It's when the valve extends into the combustion chamber in such a way that if the timing belt were to snap and the valve was open, the piston would hit the valve, bending/breaking it and causing possible damage to the piston. Which is why changing timing belts on these engines is so important to do in time.
