Closest thing to...

What I need to know is, what is the closest engine currently available in 1/24 scale to the SR20DET?

Thanks for your help.

If you're looking for a complete, block, head minus tranny the only 4-cyl engine I can think of is the Toyota 4AGE(metal?). It's a got a flat, twin-cam style valve cover at least.

There are a bunch of plastic top-halfs from die-cast models though.

Our only hope lies in people's "secret projects"

Thanks 675datsun. I need more suggestions if possible. Preferable a rear wheel drive inline four.

Have you ever considered modifying the late 60's 4-cyl sports car engines??
Remember the Alfa twincam? It's oil pan could even pass for a Greddy SR20DET oil pan

Maybe even the Lotus "big valve" motors could be modified as well?
