s14 blacktop head on redtop block? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Does this work? Just bought an S13 with an s14 blacktop SR. The pistons are melted and the cylinder walls are scored up. The car came with a bare redtop block and I was wondering if I can put the s14 head on it and swap the internals?

I did search. This is the only thread I could find on the subject and I'm looking for more info.

And this thread says it will work. Thanks for the insightful post though. I really learned a lot.

i never herd of any one doing this, it may be possible but i would just swap internals and get new seals and barings, ect so its like you got a new bottom end for a few hundred $$ then you kno its gunna last you at least 50k. and the difference between s13 sr20 and s14 is the s14 has vvt so it may not work
