[4agze]

I am very good with tools though and do have friends to help as well. That being said I think I can do a stock Toyota engine swap (4AC, 4AG, 4AGZE). The real problem here is money.

So I have a stock SR5 corolla hatch right now with an unfixable engine (seller claims). I can replace the engine with a 4AC, but that is hard to find right now for a reasonable price. Or I can do a 4AG swap right?

What is the additional hardware needed in addition to the 4AG longblock? Also how much would the total cost tally up to for the additional components?

Thanks!

if your ok with swaps just rebuild a 16V 4age high comp block w/ a big port head if you want to kick it up a notch do what my brother did a 20V bottom with a 16V head that will bump your compression higher. if you plan on doing a 4agze from a AW11 MR2 not worth it
