20r head on early (1984) 22r block

4x4yoda · 08-23-2007, 05:15 PM

so i got a 20r head, intake and carb for my motor. no need for exhaust manifold i have a header. anyway, what parts do i use for this to work correctly? a 20r HG set or a 22r HG set? 20r or 22r cam? any help will be helpfull. when i get this done anything else i should have done too?? i figured i'd get my motor switched to a dual row timing chain since its that stripped down anyway. what else am i forgetting?

22r / e is the gasket of choice .. and the head will bolt right on . I also went with the double chain for strength .

obviously the intakes are different , so when I did mine , I did an OFFY , and webber combo , with an addapter so I could stay with the factory air cleaner .

cams are the same .. it's just the "grind" that makes the differance .. I went with a low torque cam for offroading .
