Ok so the trans finally blew in celica sooo i decided now would be as good of a time as any to start engine build/swap.

I have decided to go the N/A 4age route more then likely one of the 20v's.

What do you guys think? Ill be completley ripping the engine apart as soon as i get it. Replacing most of the internals.

Aye i would probably turbo the silvertop as well but i want just a N/A engine... just dont see to many of them on here.

So you think stock pistons rods will be fine in it? I know the aftermarket for the 20v's isnt that great. I was thinking about changing them or boring it slightly over to bump up the compression a bit more.

I came to this discovery a long time ago. Not many N/A cars ehh? there might be a reason. wink.gif

A cheaply turboed 7a will outrun a blacktop 6spd hands down in the straight line. It would have more hp. and torque. In an AutoX match, the drivers would decide.

I disagree. Based on dyno results of a 7AFTE (around 8-10 psi)... I don't think it can out run the blacktop 20V by much in the 1/4 mile. AE111's have proven overseas to be very formidable, and the blacktop is a much better set-up than a silvertop. It'll be very close. On a circuit, the 7AFTE *might* be able to win... on a closed short track, the 20V will win easily. This is assuming the engines are in the same cars.
