Dont get me wrong they are a nice motor, just not the price of install and the work that needs to be done to complete it. Id rather take the 4ag 16v and build it.

Id rock a 16 hi-comp all day.
We did one at my house its a lot of work and being SR5 itll be even more exspensive and time consuming. Plus if you dont have a distributer relocation kit(1200 new) youll have to recess the firewall to clear the distributer.

Re: questions on AE86 swap
When i had my ae92 i heard from alot of people that did silvertop and black top swaps that you have to keep the itb's in sync and that this was alot of work. Also i heard the engine doesnt run so good on 93 pump gas cause it made for japanese high octane gas.
