GeezNuts- It's not going to be easy. Lot of fabrication work to do, but I know its possible I have found one other swap done.
nyqueenz- Really wanted to stick with a modern 4cyl. The m42 was a more realistic other choice (compared to M52), but the technology and power the f20 has just kills the other 4cyl setups.

Gotcha!! Just adds to the uniqueness!! Good luck!!

Planning any other power adders, or will stock power be more than enough?

is stock power ever enough?

I'm going to just run it as is so I can get it fitted and all that good stuff, but I'm sure in the future it will be changed up. ITB's be fun or a small turbo.
