has anyone done this or heard of someone doing this?
Will the pistons interfere with the valves? anyone know what needs to be done? I know of a guy who did it in a corolla forum, but i thought i would ask here too. |

3sge head from a 4th gen GT-S? im looking for a word to describe that... oh yea, pointless. to do a good valuable, power gaining headswap, it will usually cost around as much as swapping the entire engine out. so unless u find some super great deal on a nice head and all the other ridiculous things u need for it to work, it is more productive to swap the engine. of course there are the people who want to be different and think the only way to do that is to do something that no one else has done and it ends up costing more and putting out less power, but its original. i do believe u would be the only guy with a 6th gen with this particular headswap. but is it worth your time and money? prolly not. with that head its hard to say if u would be doin any better than u are now. if u want power save up for a swap or a turbo or somethin like that. or, a much easier option have ur celi be ur show car and buy a car that actually is fast. thats gonna be my way of doin it.
