My motor has 218k on it, and it works fine...

I know of an EJ20G closed deck shortblock for sale for $100 if you need something to get you back on the road...

Wow - a EJ20G shortblock for $100 sounds good!

You can put the ej22t heads on the 20g & use the car while you build the new motor....

That seems like it would be quite the dog... seeing as the 20g has way less torque and the 22t heads have no top end...

Hmm... that would be interesting.

You may be surprised as the EJ20G shortblock is meant to be used with the big cc DOHC heads.
Once the small cc sohc heads are on there the compression will be higher than the 8.5:1 EJ20Gs usually have - ? 9ish:1 CR.

It should be a surprising little motor.

You get to drive your own car & build the 2.2 the way you really want to at your own pace.

Not really...I have ridden in a car with such a setup, and it was far from doggy.
