you could put oversized valves in there and some cams.

what would they do? // what would the pricing be? // more info? // i'll be having the valve gaskets fixed (valve job)...would this be a better way to go?

I've seen one set of cams ever for the 4a (which i think would work?) and i think they were about 1000, but i forget where i saw them. you could do a ge (performance head, look at nik's project) but thats probably more work than you want.

Just do a 3-5 angle valve good and port and polish. That's all you can do right now. Only cams are from Webcamshafts.com, and they're $650. It's a 5sfe man. It took me awhile to stop myself and say, "this thing is not worth it." I read post after post. But I actually talked to a guy who dumped a ton of money into a 5sfe and did all the stuff I wanted, and he then swapped in a 3sge and said he wished he never would have done anything to the 5sfe because it was a total waste of money. I'd just do a couple little things so that it's fun to drive, and save for something worth it.

yeah....i'm going to skip the valve job...the engine is just getting old....i'm going to see about a swap....
