pi head swap wont blow a motor. if the motor is going to go, its going to go. with or without the heads

But another point to think about is...

PI headswap requires 93 octane b/c of thr increased compression

Also, it's expensive...wanna sink that much money into a car that might go in 5 or 10k miles?

well i did it, i bought the heads, manifold, tb, upper intake, fuel rails, gaskets seals, and headbolts for 800, i think i got a pretty good deal. everything was off a 2000 that had 3k miles. so i have a bit of a job ahead of me, hopefully the parts will come in acouple days

Yeah...I'd say. Hopefully it comes as you wanted and you will enjoy your car a whole lot more!
