7afe engine build, top end Options

[lfk13114]

came from toyotacelicas.com and like noone over there seems to help ne more.

Just to make sure, this is more a question and some help, i hope i am in the right section.

ok i have a 7afe, i have completed everything i've wanted to bottom end. i had it bored from 81 to a 82.5 mm, forged wiseco pistons, pauter rods, rings (9.5:1 comp) high velocity oil pump, bearings ect... i am adding a turbo kit, looking at garret t25bb.

ok with that mentioned, i cant find a single thing to where i can boost my top end. i was looking for cams with longer durations, performance springs, basically the works. so i am wondering, do any other heads fit on the 7afe, whats needed for the modification, machineing, ect.., i heard the 4age fit right on there, but i am still coming up empty handed looking for parts. and its pretty close the 7afe head. i would need all the SAFC and prob E-Manage, wiring harness and all that.


i am wondering if any honda engines like the K series heads might possibly(way out there idea i kno) fit. if not i want something that i can work with and play with.


i have a crap load of money and time into bottom end, i am in desperate need of help and i dont want to ditch it cause its a dead end
if this is posted in the wrong forum i aplogize and please re-direct
please help

so please any ideas, or sites would be much helped
