    Mm.. I've read on the old forums that people who did the swap had problems obtaining the rated horsepower when they dyno after the swap. You might want to look into that as well.

    i'm sorry to say... but getting the rated numbers from a 20V is HARDER than getting them from a 16V or a gze....

    if you're going for a 4a-ge 16v.... all you'll really need is someone who can modify the ecu for you.... the longblock, someone who can wire in the dizzy and aftermarket ignition, and new hoses..... seems most these people above haven't done it before :)

    for a gze... you'd be smarter to go with either a stand alone setup (ie, megasquirt) or find a gze ecu.... for that, you should try and find the complete harness as well to make things almost simple....

    for a 20V.... i'm not gonna get into it.... things for it are hard to find and if you don't have all the necessary parts / part numbers then i wouldn't do it....

    your stock tranny WILL work with any of these motors..... if you went with a gze you might wanna rethink it because you'll be getting near it's limit.....

    take it from someone who has an ae92 and has done a 4age swap.....
