I am getting my 420a rebuilt and it is completely out of the vehicle, what are some suggestions for upgrades that i should consider and or available. Any feedback is appreciated.

BTW, the mechanic said he would bore out the motor so that it would be about a 2.2L instead of a 2.0L, is this kind of increase possible and if so how much extra HP will it give me?

your not goin to get a 4g63t motor in that car without spending 5-6000 on it... then the motor is still stock, so if he spends the 5-6000 on the 420a then he is a hell of a lot faster!!!

RST said it, for the money 4g63t is out of the question. build and boost the 420a.

get it bored out forged pistons, rods, crank. lighten the flywheel so it will rev faster. port and polish the head and intake exhaust manifolds. 3 angle valve job. the list is endless
speed is money, how fast do you want to go?

Its also worth mentioning the 420a motors arent exactly famous for crankwalk...

I dont have the money to turbo it right now, but maybe in the future. I guess what i wanted to know is what would give me more power for the buck.

best for the buck would be a turbo.. haha. for the money you'd be spending to do half the stuff these people mentioned you could easily turbo it. just save some cash up and have at it. anything will help. Good luck
