do you think that it would be god to rebuild my engine? I wanna put the H22A in but I have to do this until I can save for the H22A. Would I have more power and better take off? Would it run like new? How many more miles do you think that it would last? I have 191,??? on it right now.

Don't understand.
Why do you need a rebuild anyway?

Yea if you're gonna swap anyways, then a rebuild on your current motor would be a waste of $$$. 191k ain't nothin for an A20... my 316k mile motor is still getting 200 psi compression across all 4. Normal is 178, if that tells ya anything

Get a compression tester from any auto parts store.
