[QUOTE="tooslow, post: 222699, member: 9239"] a lot of people feel the same way. if i were to do an engine swap, i'd do 4v. but just the head swap, can be done with minimal wiring using the stock 2v ECU. here is a link to a swap i just found. [url]http://www.bmcforums.com/showthread.php?t=24369[/url] if swaping to stock 3v components, it can be done for much cheaper than a 4v swap. barely more expensive than a PI head swap. and much cheaper than a ported PI swap while making more power with more potential still on the table. the reason i thought to bring this up, is because of an idea i had. and it involves forced induction. this wouldn't exactly be the cheapest idea, but has my interest peaked. just try and follow along and see if you notice what i have.
