Then you would have to buy a BLack Top 20V head, which will bolt on the gze block because.....THEY HAVE THE SAME BLOCK! The 4AGZE crank is steel while the rest i believe are cast iron. Anyhow, it would be like running a Black Top 20V with a supercharger and a steel crank.

i'm confused! if the ZEs are a lot common, how is it gonna be cheaper to buy just the BT 20V head (isn't it harder to get this than a AFM ZEs)? i've never seen anyone selling just a head. isn't it better to buy a whole BT 20V, install it and then later on boost it. hachi_slow made a good point, and you're worried about the cranshaft but not with the ohter internal parts which are much lighter (meaning not meant for boosting but for high revs) like the pistons. the AE111 pistons are not really meant for boosting. you'd be lucky if that motor last for a month with even a 5psi of boost and driving it hard. i still don't understand why you have to make the BT boosted, it'll be much much cheaper to build-up the 16V ZEs with much better result. but i you have the cash then goodluck!
toyotaspeed90... i'm still curious about the clearnce issue! thanks..
