You want some advice? Take off the caps lock and use proper sentences.

A good swap would be going to a 4g63 motor, preferably a six-bolt.

Holy f'ing caps lock, batman!!! :D

I would think that having forged internals or some sort of engine work would increase the reliability. Sounds like you have alot invested in your car already, which is awesome. Just have fun with it and if it dies, find out what happened and learn from it. ;)

No, that is not a good swap. Extremely time consuming and costly. You're better off just building up for 420a.
