Yeah. Your wallet will also be a lot emptier, so you'll be able to fit things in there too.

Same bottom end.use all the standard 2lt stuff.

Good luck finding a usable Cossie head.It's getting harder to find a crack free SOHC head-let alone a DOHC one with boost all it's life.

Remember-these engines are nearly 20 year old.

yeap.As easy as a Skyline gear box conversion on your SR20.
You need the Tensioner set up also with d DOHC Cossie.
