The lighter internals and n/a flywheel make it rev and bark up really quick which is awesome.
You can just drop the head on the bluetop or redtop engines but they lack a knock sensor so will throw a CEL and knock back the timing. The blocks are not as strong but they should hold this without any issues. They are almost exactly the same block and you can swap back and forth with ease.
I would really like to polish the rods or have them shot but it hasn't had an issue so far. Runs like it just rolled out of the factory and idles like a dream. Funny since it was just a slap together engine that I intended to replace with a stock one when it blew up.

So the head's swap, but does the supercharger bolt onto the block?
I'm just looking into my options, i was talking to a guy that was selling a 3sgte, but hasn't answered me in a while, so now i'm considering either swaping in a 4agze, or just adding the super and head to the existing 4age. And at some point i'm going to swap in a manual tranny to replace the auto, i've heard that a celica 6 speed can work, but i'll see what happens.
But ya, lots of plans, but who knows what'll actually end up being done
