I have aspirations to increase my car's performance and have come across Top Swapping time and time again. I've taken a look at the Stickies but can't seem to find this answer: Is it possible to swap the top of my 04 L26 engine with a L32 Supercharged? Is it more advantageous to do a top swap, or full engine swap?? Any insight is greatly appreciated since I'm incredibly fresh to the subject, Thanks!!
    Full swap is better.

    Turbo is even better.

    Or there's this: http://www.grandprixforums.net/ever-seen-64065.html

    Anyway, I think full swap is easier, but from everything I've read top-swap will get you more power. It just depends on whether or not that amount of power is worth the extra trouble to you.
