Anyone here on the boards done a 20-valve swap before? I know a guy who works for JHot that has done 2, but just seeing locally if any engine swap gurus in the house.... just looking to do it for cheap, and possibly just going to do it myself with a DIY guide. Give you free food and good times for help on a fellow slider.:goodjob:

Pretty much the only thing I'm concerned about that I can't do is perfecting the paint, engine swap, weld a custom rollcage.

I can work on brakes, suspension, wheel install, cosmetics... you know, the easy stuff.

I don't have the tools and such to work on my car 100% by myself... so I have no choice but to take it to shops.

Cool deal... I'll let you know... getting price quote from a few shops...seeing what I can do. I don't want to move the car around so much...trying to keep it in one place (It's in Augusta, GA right now) before I get it all good to go.

done a 92 st and a black top swap(w/ 6speed). both into MKI MR2's though (alil easier) but i am very familiar with the 4a motor. im currently working on a 7ag hybrid swap for my car....it will be awhile though. snapper id be very interested if youve had experience with custom mounts/welding. id scrap my 7ag for a 3SGE in a heart beat haha
