4AC block with 4AG head
I know this is possible. I think. What generation 4ag head can I use? I know ill have to do something about the exhaust. Ill keep it carbed, for now. Cna I just rip the head out of an AE92 and put it on my SR5?

Yeah Ive researched this on CLub4AG, its possible. I just dont know if it be quicker to swap engines...because I dont want to decommission my car for a few days, even though its not my daily driver

I heard that Id need the 4AG internals and a 4AG gasket although I heard someone say they were the same....

Yeah, if the internals need to be changed then I would say it would be quicker to do a engine swap with the 4AGE....and you prob would get more power.

It would be interesting to see a conversion like what your talking about, though.

The belhousing is NOT a problem.
You can also use 4AFE internals - widely available, not weaker than early 4AGE ones - the crank will match your 4AC flywheel. You must check carefully CR and valve-piston clearances.

So I can use a 4AGE with my SR5 transmission?

When I do find a 4AG engine, ill keep it carbed, then maybe later get the EFI goin'. if thats possible

Yes, you can.
When you find 4AGE, try to buy harness and EFI also from the same car- this is the straight (and easiest) swap.
