4age head swap, Worth it? Options

[BigJ]

Ok another question i have about fixing up my 7afe is this: I found most the HP internals as far as the bottom end is concerned but what about the top end. I looked into the 4age head swap but that seemed like a bunch of crap. Changing to 4a pistons and all that other mess. The "G" head is toyotas performance head right. Couldnt i just make my "F" head a performance head? I mean whats the real big difference between the heads. Wouldnt it be easier to rebuild the head i have with some performance parts like valve springs and lifters and stuff (if any are availabe for the 7a). Then have bigger cams or have my existing cams shaved and then do a port and polish. Never really worked with heads much so this is not my forte. Lemme know what you guyz think....

Has anyone done the 4a-GZE swap with the supercharger? Im really looking into doing that.

Anyone with first hand experience?

also how much should it cost?

I was looking at buy an engine for about $800 that has all the head and super charger, but, i think it would just be cheaper to buy the parts.

Anyone?
