2ZZ head on a 7AFE block, will it work? Options

[mandrek]

if i got a power FC, and ran the extra (few) wire's for the 2ZZ head. could i run a 2ZZ head w/ the vvtl-i on a 7AFE? (auto)??

from what i figure for the electronics part of it, i would have to leave the stock ecu to control the auto, and have the PowerFC run the rest of the car. (is that posible)

and primarily. is it mechanickly feasible?

you have alot of searching to do. Not only in this forum, but in the 4a club also.

Since you are only going to make a quick car, i would not recomend you changing the engine head or messing with the internals. Just slap on a turbo and get it managed nicely.

If you want to change the head, you would have to deal with alot more then you can handle. You would have to deal with finding a timing belt that would fit. The right head gasket. A ecu that can handle the new engine. i know nik is in the process of doing this. But nik is a pro, even I am a noob compared to nik. And i have worked on engine since i was 10 years old.

As for the 2zz rods, they are in the works by fallenhero. So far they do not fit. You will need to get some machine work to get them to work.
