major clearance issues, you'd have to cut off and make longer mounts on the w2a and tack on some nuts to the head, then the bonnet wouldnt close because the fe head is taller than the g* head. the g* head is recessed to fit the w2a in the same space as an fe head normally takes.
also a 3s-gte intake manifold could be used though, with a custom S-bend throttle body mouth to meet the raised intercooler -------------------- Mike W
