E4 film cannot be processed in E6. The emulsion of transparency film
before E6 and VNF had to be hardened to be processed at 100 degrees
otherwise the emulsion would get so soft it would fall off the film base.
You could try getting an e6 kit and making up your own batch of prehardener
and
neutralizer.
The other solution would be to try to process in E6 at 75 to 80 degrees -
in which case it would take you about an hour instead of 20 minutes.
