Interchangability Among Toyota Engines 3SFE

What parts can be interchanged among the 3SFE engine? Specially Heads! Can I use a 4AGE engine head on a 3SFE Engine? Or a 3SGTE head on a 3SFE Block? So on and so forth. How much can a 3SFE engine handle? Can it handle a Turbo T3/T4 with a shot of NOS? Camshaft, which can be changed among themselves?

No, you can't put a 4A-GE head on a 3S block. If you want to mix'n'match bits, they have to come from another S series engine. You can put a 3S-GTE head on a 3S-FE block with a bit of work, but why would you bother? Much easier just to swap the whole engine.
Yes you could build a 3S-FE to handle forced induction, but once again why would you bother when Toyota built the 3S-GTE already turbocharged? If you want a turbo S series engine, buy one of them and be done with it.

I have a 1997 Toyota RAV4. It has TRD Muffler, TRD Shocks, H&R Springs, TRD Thermostat, TRD Front Brace Tower Bar, and Weapon R Intake among other things that are on the way. But I got a 3SFE head polished and ported. Opening look great. Besides, installing a 3SGTE engine is the logical move mate. But I want to modify this engine, regardless. Some NOS is also being taken into consideration. There is a web site called www.lowspeakz.com they have RAV4 modified. But the language barrier is an issue. If anyone can help with opinion, links, pointer, Great.

I think there are diferences between rav 4 3sf,s and normal
camry and celica 3sf,s, think its somthing to do with the machined
bosses that mount accesorys and mounts etc on the block, rav 4
blocks have more threaded bosses in places that a camry 3sf does not not 100% thou
