Engine Conversion Feed Back

just a general discussion on an engine conversion you may have done and wether you think it was worth itin the end. its the cost/ effort and hassles versus every day performance over the original. state what you had and what you went to and the big differences.

i have a question to the ones that have gone from 4afc or what ever it is in 91 corolla hatch to 20v.is it a massive gain in drivability and power/torque. i know this sounds like a retarded Q but hear me out. i had a fx-gt rolla with the tvis 4ag in it and it was useless in every day driving like between lights etc but once it hit 3500rpm it would pull off the speedo when the others would drop off. the gt i believe had a close ratio 5speed. my mate at the time had a stock rolla and put the 20v in and i wasnt that impressed and thought my gearbox must help more than i thought. the current crap little 4a carby yawn motor has nice bottom pull and is all right and i would nearly say give my old rolla a run for its money upto 110klm. i always thought if i was to do a conversion it would be the gze not the 20v but i have the temptation of a 20v in front of me but don't consider the change worth it unless its gunna haul heaps harder.............thoughts every one.
