Re: 4ac converted to 4age

I wouldn't bother. By the time you buy all the bits you'll pay for a 4AGE engine over and over plus you should upgrade your brakes as well. Donor cars come up quite often with remodelled front panels where the engine has been upgraded but the brakes havent. You can have my 4AC engine for a spare spare if you want it.
I have recently done a 4AC to 4AGE conversion in an AE82 using a Twincam donor car. Best way to go as everything is there and it's just a matter of swapping engine and associated parts over -including brakes. Just had the motor blue-slipped with no problem as the engine was standard in that model.
