Leme preface this with i know this was discussed again less then a week ago but ive been looking for a half hour with search and all and still cant find what I wanted. Someone mentioned an actualy 6 speed trany that reduced 1/4 mile times 1 second. What was that? Im just looking into this for potential/curiousitys sake. To truly utilize the potential of 6 speed tranny wouldnt one need a new ecu as well? I was thinking for all thoes getting turbos for their 7AFE it would really be a nice feature! *trying to weight potential of swap vs turbo still smile.gif* Thanks guys

Actually....  you could use the 7a bottom end and the 4a head with the 4a ECU and get a nice engine. (only if the 20v head will bolt onto the 7a.)  I know this works with old school 4age heads, but the 20v.... hey coomer, when you get your 7a back, try to bolt the other 20v head onto it!:)

If you do that with a 20V, you'll also need to use the 20V pistons, get custom rods, bearings, ECU, wiring, etc.

No one that I know of have tried even a 4AGE 16V head on a 7A... so... dream on...shall we say... however...it would be neat...

Oh yeah... even with a 6 speed trannie, the 7A doesn't really benifit from having it, mainly because the shorter gearing doesn't do much in terms of the power delivery patterns of the 7A (mostly low-end)... in this case, if you can accelerate faster, it'll be in the 5K+ department...where the 7A tops out... beyond that...it drops off... but who knows...
