Haven't given much of a thought tho, well the bottom line is getting the 16v out and putting the 20v in make it runs and drives..

I'm currently in the process of doing the 20v swap. Here's what I've spent so far getting the car together without including fuel cell, links , etc.

BT 20v (came with RS Chita dizzy cap and spigot bearing in place) - $900
Tec Art's trumpets - $330
SS Works waterline - $660
Honda D17 COPs - $20
Engine harness/ECU (Did the wiring myself) - $220 ($500 pre-made by Tweakd)
Tercel throttle cable - free99
Exhaust manifold - $500

That's more or less what you're looking at.
