Thats the thing, putting a 16v back in is not a swap. There is no extra wiring difficulty or any other special stuff that needs to be done. The new one goes in the same way the old one came out. That extra stuff will keep most people from even thinking about going 20v and in turn keep demand low.

Just by shear numbers, there are going to be more 16v's out there, but the majority will have a ton of miles and/or need to be rebuilt to be useable. The 20v will be in better condition on average and can be dropped in a car with very little freshening up.
