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. -------------------- 1999 Celica GT

i would liek to know abut this subject too..i have a low budget so it makes more sense to me to try THIS then to spend the money for a swap. If blu or anyone is like me they use the celica as a D/D not just as a toy to play with so keeping it running for as large percent od the time as possible is important. also not everyone has the cash to just go and buy a motor or even save for one let alone one that everyone wants to get their hands on....i want to see more on this topic

Why? cause engine "parts" are typically more expensive than whole engines... and you're gonna have to find a LOT of mysterious parts... -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl...
