Yeah I read about that. Paradise racing sell an upgrade kit for the 4AC bringing it to over stock 4AG specs.

The thing is, 8 valve is not a bad system powerwise, 16v is mostly invented for fuel economy reasons and a more constant power output then 8v. Its just that the 4AG was also designed as a performance engine while the 4AC was designed as a commuter engine.

Dont forget that all the mussle cars only have 2 valve's per cilinder aswell, its just that they have 8 instead of 4 Smile

Also almost every 4 cylinder performance engine made before the 4AG was an 8 valve.

I'm pretty sure you can get some serious performance numbers out of a 4AC if you mod it right.
