Thread: sr20ve head on usde bottom

will the valves hit or not. im getting mixed answers. please post up if you have actually done this swap.

from what ive read....nope

no on stock cams

throw some ve pistons in there and call it a day

De block, ve head, w/ stock 20ve cams will work perfect,no problem!

Read post #49-page 3, and post #78-page 4. This swap has been done many times with no issues, no need to change pistons with stock 20ve cams. Now if you plan on running 16ve cams or n1's or anything bigger than stock it ain't happening!

that guy seems to have it going. i wonder if it is still running ok? is he on this forum?

If you do a de/ve I would throw in some SR16 pistons. Won't have the notch the skirt since the DE doesn't have the oil squirters. Plenty of piston-valve clearance. Can do N1 cams then tune, tune, tune. Don't limit yourself by leaving stock pistons in.

No.

I currently have N1's on a DE bottom end.

what else do you have done? valve springs? ve oil pump? how high are you reving?

......oh
