Though I'm a trained Toyota mechanic, they don't teach you anything that's not in the book. Plus as soon as I got my degree and all their certificates I went to Honda and never looked back ... until I purchased my 6gc. With Honda, there are a number of hybrid engine combinations you can do, some worth it, some not. Is this at all so with the 5S-FE? Are there any heads that are at all common to swap on to a 5S-FE block, or is my only choice swapping the engine to get more performance (besides adding a turbo, which to me is more of a pain than it's worth. If I go turbo, I'm just going to swap an entire -GTE in)

Couldnt agree more about imports. Yes hondas are walmart legos. Just built a b20 block with a b18 vtec head and turbo for my budies civic hatch. 10k later 450hp was put down. Wish toyotas were the same. Deff. Get your hands on a 3sge head. Would be interesting to see how well they fit(oil/water). And look up the bore and wrist pin diameter. Might work. Find the dish size and get a compression ratio if you were to throw them in.
