This is for the 6gc owners with 4age swaps, How powerful is the 4age 20V engine in our car? Options

[qmoney10457]

I've been thinking really hard lately about doing a 4age 20V "blacktop" engine swap in my car(94' st). I'm really not sure if I wanna do it anymore. I say this because a friend of mine told me doing the swap is not worth it because yes, the "silvertop" comes 160 and the "blacktop" comes 165 but all that power will not be produced in our car cause its way heavier than the corolla it comes in(witch makes a lot of sense 2 me). So I just wanna know if anybody dynoed their car with one of these engines in their car. If so, how much whp does it produce in our cars. Even if nobody dynoed it, if u at least have an idea...it would be very helpful. Thanx guyz.

ST = 165, BT = 175

ask coomer.

The silvertop is rated at 160(but the general concensus is that it was over-rated by Toyota), and the blacktop at 165. Both engines have VVT, and no VVT-i. That's another common misconception so I'm just clearing that up in advance.

Anyway, the silvertop will put down as much horsepower in a Celica as it does in a Corolla. A dyno doesn't take into account vehicle weight. So I'd search around for dyno numbers on Club4AG.com and Google and such...I haven't searched in forever but I think silvertops are making from 120-130whp.
