I've got some good used 10.5:1 forged pistons from C20XE, they are for 1st oversize of 86.5mm. http://www.daewootech.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7225 ahh.. I wish I had the funds.. I mean.. I have them for the 175 for the pistons, but I would need new rods because the T20SED stock rods wouldn't work,...

I think I know someone with a set of C20XE pistons for sale.... I will have to check into it. Everything is pretty much the same..... the C20XE uses a floating piston where as the C20NE is a press fit..... but this isn't too hard to overcome. I'd go with a Cometic MLS gasket just because it's the s...

Does anyone know how much the head on the T20SED can be milled for increased compression? Does anyone know where to find the C20XE pistons? Are the internals such as pistons, crank, rings, etc... on the T20SED the same size as the C20NE? What's a good headgasket for increased compression (non turbo)

ok, found out from pontiacJeff and also thought more about the alternator issue. I am going to try to fabricate a bracket for the alternator that has long slotted holes in it so it will be able to be pulled back, therefore putting tension on the belt, and then tightened. This is the way pontiacJeff ...

It's an automatic. I am using a manual steering rack, so I already have that one solved. The tensioner is the major issue.. Im using a Daewoo alternator and I guess some sort of bracket needs to be made but pontiacJeff said it was a common bracket? It's an automatic, is the TH125 auto or manual? It'...

There are a few guys that have done this.... I own an 87 Sunbird GT turbo.... and a Pontiac Lemans with the Sunbird 2.0L 8V turbo (C20GET) Upgrading to the 16V may be a headache.... it uses a DIS ignition system (no distributor) so the compatibility with the Sunbird ECU will depend on what year of ...

Sunbird hybrid

Hi, I would like to swap a T20SED into a sunbird with a C20NE. I might just swap the head. Does anyone know anything about this swap? I already know a few things.. Like I might have to use the sunbird A/C bracket if I swap the entire motor (blocks are basically same) and the power steering pump will...
