Which engine will i choose? Help needed for decisions...
Sun, 29 February 2004 11:11
Atm I'm in the lengthy process of (for my needs etc etc) figuring out which engine 4AGE 20v or a 4AGZE would be best suited.
Power figures are in favour with the supercharged, just slightly with Kw but by quite a bit with Nm.
My question is whether there is anything one could do to increase the torque in the 20valve engine?
Also, with a 10.5:1 compression ratio would the 20v need premium fuel?
Furthermore, I'd like anyone who's done either transplant (20v or 4AGZE from 4AGE in an Ae82 or equivalent) to pm me or email me (jayman@hosts1.com) about the complexities of the swap over. Engine mounts, gear box mating, drive shafts etc! Any help for this would be much appreciated - I wanna do this right and get bang for buck!
