Eh... Get a B series motor instead... Or, the K series is a nice option as well

With 4g's you can get a nice swap. Do you have all the turbo components already, if not then I would say get a swap. Less hassel and more potentail in the future!

you can do without the eagle rods and endyn pistons

i would just get oem replacement pistons and machines LS rods

post the block yourself, there is a DIY floating on the net, PM me if you cant find it

i would just get a new flywheel isntead of resufacing


a belt tensioner isnt mentioned there, your gonna need a new one too

valve job plus head cleaning seems to be what i'm gonna end up paying for it.

remember SOHC's are about DIY **** and work best with home made turbo's and what not...

i would just boost your current engine to 5-7 psi, wait till it blows, and buy a new engine for 400 dollars


btw where in toronto are u doing this? i also have a SOHC project rolling comming together, but i found a guy in aurora ( i live up in the boonies)
