Ok , well here is the plan. I have a 92 celica gt and I want to put a 3s head on the 5s bottom end. I have done a little bit of research and found this to be as equally difficult as a ls/vtech swap. I am also going to be putting on a turbo in the process of a head swap. My main question is not about mechanical issue's but rather about wiring, sensors, fuel maps, etc., etc. Does any one know anything about this head swap on this forum. I can do all the research I want but i would also like to hear from someone rather than read something i found on the internet. We all know how reliable some sites are. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

 

3sge head? 3sfe head?

i hope your building the bottom end too. i turbod 2 with under 50k and they both came appart. rebuilt the one with forged internals and then blew the tranny....new tranny, sold car.

then got the GT4

 

Oh yes i plan on building the bottom end as well. I have sourced some H-Beam Rods and Forged pistons and am in search for a crank. if i cant find one well i will knife edge and balance the crank. And of course ARP studs and fastners all the way around. I will also use a 1.5mm head gasket to lower compression as stock gasket is 1mm. This is going to take a long time for me to do becouse i also want build the head mildly. Just valves, springs, titanium retainers, and cams. With a mild port and polish and port match all the manifolds. Well i guess not mildly but all the same. Maybe i am hoping for leaps and bounds with a wooden leg but i am always up to a challange. And oh yea I would like to get a second gen. 3sg head. And you say Gt4 like everybody has one, what generation is yours and do you have any pics? Thanks for the info.

EDIT: and as far as the tranny goes i am not positve but i think the camry V6 tranny bolts to my bottom end. And if it doesnt then i know a 3sg one will.
