Re: KE Engine Conversion... Advice Please

First up welcome to the world of the KE corolla .
There are quite a few options for engine coversions for these cars.
The easiest conversion would be to swap the 4K for a 5K. This is a straight swap as they are both K series motors.
Also you could fit a 2TGEU or a 4AGE.
The AE101 corolla's were FWD so using an engine out of one of these would require some mods.
Search the forums for these engines and you will find a heap of info on them. If you have trouble using the search function have a read of the How to search the forum thread.
Also the Tech Docs have a couple of articles on converting FWD 4AGE's to RWD. Alot of the info on 4AGE's is written for sprinters but it is still applicable to older corollas.
Finally I would suggest talking to an engineer as some of these conversions will require engineer approval.
