Idiot that wrote the article wrote:JWT valve springs are used with JWT C1 camshafts with SR20VE mechanical lifters assuring valvetrain stability at high rpm. Tomei rocker arm stoppers also keep things together at high revs.

Lol what!?!?!? The ve doesn't use the lifter/rocker pivot that the de/det uses, and I seriously doubt that the s14 sr head was machined to accept the 2 shafts that run the length of the ve head that the rockers pivot on.

You know what I mean. There some be a class that prohibits engines that were never offered in that chassis or from that manufacturer, FWD to RWD conversions, tube chassis' and quick change diffs.
