just wondering how the 7age motors are holding up?
especially the 16valve heads
reason being my 4age 16valve let go and I need a motor and 4afe's i can get cheap as appossed to 4age's.
cheers

i was wondering,
say i take a blacktop 20v and a late model 7afe and build a 20v 7age. with the remaining parts (the 20v block, crank, rods; the fe head, pistons) could i build a strong 4afe and if so could i use the 7afe computer?
I'm think bout this because my new daily has a 4afc in it with 200XXXm on it (still going strong) which will eventually die and need a new motor or rebuild. if i had those leftover parts laying around why not put them to good use
you could build a very strong fe engine however I don't know how it would go with the different type of con-rod design, the 20v rods would be floating and the fe pistons wouldn't be. However the 7afe pistos would have too low a compression anyway and using 4age pistons might be a good bet.
Another option is to just sell off all the 20v bits which I would think woudl be very easy and then just buy a 4afe engine for like $5, well not quite but they can be had pretty cheap.

thats a good idea, id be in for that one, and just so you know i ran my 4afc dry on oil at 280xxxkm topped it up and its goin fine so don't expect it to die anytime soon, ive pumped so much nitro methan into it for my mate to har the pingin, in the car next to me, and it didnt die lol, thyre awesome.
But your little hybrid is an awesome idea, it should work, it is a 4a aftr all, be really effecient too.
