I wasn't sure. Probably not much benefit over a cammed SOHC engine except maybe better mileage.

 

I'm almost finished with this process right now and I don't believe that it's worth it . The money it's taken to achieve this is not worth it IMO.

 

i managed to mate my 4g94 sohc block with a 4G93E dohc head look

wow nice job!

 

Pics of how you did that? write up?

So far


Black Beauty

Another angle

Head back from acid diping, valve springs and new valve stem seals installed

Using SOHC 4g93-94 head gasket, just to show that the head bolts 100%

Close up

NGK power :twisted:

Painting finish

where we got the DOHC and Mivec conversions prices have changed already:

Mivec conversion will start on the 23rd of this month, using 4G92 RS head

 

so what improvement, if any have you gained thus far?

 

Quite a lot but i cant say that until i actually push it, i have not taken the car over 3K RPM. Until i take to dyno i cant tell you, once my tuner says all good that the time. My dyno appointment is tomorrow 4pm aussie time ill keep you guys posted.

 

This is a beautiful thing.

 

x2. i need this, cant wait to see some numbers.

 

1300 for that is well worth it! lol some would say that asian guys my dad

 

Yeah, not much more than a port and polish.

 

thats 1300 aussie, in us thats 1025 even better price, well worth it

 

I would drop $ 1300 for this in a heart beat probably pick up some power up top plus more timing adjustment

 

lol 1300 or 1025 is still a pretty good deal! me and my girl are the car couple..we love cars and working on them i'd take this and just have it sitting around than start a project later on. its like you cant let this pass you by and even if you don't need it now what if you want it later and its not there nomore.
