Well thank you one in all for all the suggestions, its been very helpful!

I have decided to go with "sticking with what I got" option and modd-ing it.
Only 1 small problem, im as good with mechanic stuff as what a Honda is with power :lol: , Im lucky that one of the flatties is semi good when it comes to working on engines so im not totally stuck.

Im guessing ill have to start a new thread in the tech section for this part, but I have done a lot of looking around on the net etc and there isnt much info out there on the 20v's. Theres tons for the 16v. (This guy seems to know what hes talking about: http://www.billzilla.org/4agmods.htm#20v ) So, does anyone know much about what to do to the 20v?
Im guessing the usuals would be a good place to start:
Port and polish
Cams
Valves
Pistons
Crank
???

Also had a good look at acesniper's, that thing looks dam impressive!
:)

One question...what would be better to mod, 16v or 20v???

20v is, its a bit more advanced. Nothing wrong with the 16v motors, but given you've already got a silvertop you may as well tweak that.

Ah cool cool, thanx....I only ask as I found this for sale on Tard Me, and wondered as it had the cams already done etc if it could have been worth it, but if the 20v is more advanced, may as well start with something good and imporve from there :)
