Hey i was wondering, i have a 5s-fe engine in my car, is it worth it to make it a good nautually aspired enigine or should i just save up for a 3s-gte. I can do all the engine work myself i am a toyota mechanic. I was just wondering from other people if they thought i should go all out with this engine or just do the the swap. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Go with a 3rd generation 3sge. That's a good motor for a NA build. 5sfe can be a fun little toy, but it will never be a serious motor. I'm working on some things right now. Check my profile for my mods, I still can't outrun anyone on a strate strech. But, if you want a NA motor, like me, strate stretch isn't what you care about.
