different head/block combinations, frankenstein engines? Options

[blu94gt]

So I was thinking about stuff I had read on the Honda forums a long time ago.

Would it be possible to put a 3sge head/cams/valves etc on a 5sfe bottom end?

I know when I had my Prelude SI there were guys mating the H22 v-tec head and cams onto the H23 bottom end, the head just needed a couple small water jacket machinings and it would bolt up, guys were making a lot of HP with it. Didn't know if there would be some type of work like this done with our engines.

I have no clue why people even bother thinking about this. Why go through all the time and trouble for something that's just not worth it and only a handful of people would find cool or apprciate. There are so many better options. Just get a 3S-GE or a 3S-GTE. That motor has already been proven to handle 800+ horsepower. There's nothing that you're going to magically mutt together that can beat that.

I guess I'll just end this thread lol I was just curious is all. If it's gonna not be worth it then I'll just sell the Celica and get something faster like an MR2, these cars are too ****ing slow and not worth the money. The only reason I asked is I was thinkin about the honda stuff, almost everything could bolt onto a different series engine. A guy took an accord F series block with a Prelude H22 head and H23 pistons, some other crank threw it together in a weekend and untuned it made like 260 at the wheels. For the money some of you guys put into these cars you could get real performance cars that would still run circles around your modded Celi's.
