Does anyone know if its a straight swap (apart from the wiring) from the 4AC to the 4AGE using the 4AC gearbox?? If not can you use the 4AGE head, internals etc. on the 4AC block? Thanks
An engine change is always full of tricks, but the 4AC to 4AGE swap can be one of the simplest, depending which 4ag you start with. I reccommend visiting Bill Sherwoods site, as he has heaps of info on this.
NO, you cannot swap the 4AG head onto a 4AC block.
4A-C block is not at strong as a 7rib 4AGE block. Don't be cheap just go buy a proper 4AGE
Medicine_Man has a quick information guide on the swap on the rollaclub.com wiki
sorry man but you are wrong there. the 4A-C head will go onto the 4AGE block. i have a mate that has done this to his AE71.
Nikos.
You will find you have problems lining up the timing belt and water pump etc etc..
Why hesitate when you can accelerate???

I also beg to differ: the 4ag head can bolt onto the 4ac bottom, but theres a smaller power gain.
While we are on this subject, are the engine mounts for the 4ac the same as the 16v 4age?
Cheers
Did you even bother reading this?
???
The only reason I was wondering about using the 4AC block was to keep it simple and if the engine mounts & gearbox were different for the 2 blocks. Im planning to buy a 4AGE, or a wrecked corolla and put that motor in.
From what ive read it looks like I can just pull the 4AC out, leave the gearbox and drop the 4AGE in ya?
YES... just make sure there not cracked or worn.
