Thats a no brainer...Costs nothing to rebuild one to oem specs. Dont waste your time with turboing the KA. Believe me if you turbo that KA, you'll be rebuilding it anyway, lol. If your gonna have to rebuild one, rebuild the right one.

This is what you should do......

1. Buy the SR2. Drive on the KA while you rebuild the SR3. Install built SR4. Give the old KA to someone much less fortunate than yourself

Yeah i will buy it, i've always wanted an SR. The build should take awhile since i wanted to get aftermarket pistons, rods, valves, valve springs, and girdle. This will be the first time i'll be rebuilding an engine of my own, but i'll be getting some major help from my buddies
