4a-ge(20 valve)silvertop swap Options

[Heytalktoryan]

well after getting hit and run my idea for the beams motor went down the drain, i figred while its in the shop i might as wel get it swapped w/ the 4age 20 valve silvertop,anyways my question is how much do these swaps tend to run? and where can i find a 4age silvertop engine?oh yeah and time is a problem too the swap cant any longer than a couple of weeks.I basically just want to know whatt i would need?(clip or engine better?dont see the point in the clip since its a celica not a corolla) for the swap and what all neeeds to be done.i loooked around but couldnt seem to find anything:( anyways thanks in advance

you mean the 4agze. anywho... yeah, you have to rev higher to feel the torque with a 4age. but i don't think it accelerates slower than the 7afe in the lower rpm. i haven't heard anyone complain after replacing their 110 hp engine with a 160 hp one.

Yeah, the 4agze was the supercharged one - thanks!

I've read the "complaints" on a 4age forrum (something like club4age.com?). Most those guys were interested in speed and racing, so they gladly gave up "daily driving" feel for MUCH better acceleration. I probably should have been more clear - I think the 4age swap sounds great - I've even considered it myself (I have a ST, so would be an easy swap) for when my 1.8L gives out Just wanted to throw out there that it does act different than our ST motor.

You could put the 4age head on your 7afe block and have the best of both worlds. Probably as powerful as you can get with a natrually aspired 1.8L
