I want to use the n1 pistons as they have a good design .

If you plan on sticking with the 20VE then all of the following would be things to think about.

1. Get de crank, or buy de

3. Put ve head with n1 pistion in de block. Clean up the combustion chamber a bit. Keep quench pads but smooth them. use n1 head as guide for ports.
4. Have 2 high comp engines that can run on pump gas
My guess is one would be just under 11.5:1 and the other just over 12.5:1. keep which ever runs better. Sell the other one.
5. Profit.....

You can always sell some of the parts you don't intend to use so u have funding for whatever you decide to do. Thay way you only have to spend little if anything on putting your setup together.
