Installing 205 into RAV4

I need help.
I've hooked an ST205 - in need of a rebuild. I need to know who can do an engine rebuild and installation for a reasonable price? I'm no mechanic, nor do I have any of the necessary equipment to do it. A few things that I have queries on first...
1. The RAV4 I have (1999 model 3S-FE) uses the same box design as the GT4. The end housing on the gearbox... should be a straight swapover, right?
2. The sump is farked on the 205. Will my 3S-FE replace it? Or does it need a GT4 sump?
3. Who can do an aluminium radiator for this at a good price, also an oil cooler?
All help appreciated.
Cheers.

On the 205 you must use the 205 sump or if you want to use another sump you will have to change the oil pump aswell.

Anyone know who sells them, and who makes them? I know some good ones over in the US, but I'd prefer to buy it locally.
How about the other bits?

Sells what and makes what? A 205 sump? You could get one from toyota but you would be paying an arm and a leg.
You would be best using the sump off your engine and just buying a new 185 oil pump.

Knew I should have specified that in the last post... the oil pump is what I was referring to.

You can get the pump from Toyota. I bought one just a few weeks ago.
Just for your information, The 205 has the oil filter mounted on the sump. Its for this reason you cannot use an earlier sump with the 205 pump.

If you need new pumps and stuff from Toyota I have a contact in NZ who can get geniune parts at very reasonable prices.
I got a ST185 pump for $120 NZ or so

You should be able to use the 3S-FE sump but you will need to use a ST-185 pump.

Do you know anyone who can rebuild the 3S-GTE engine (I have all parts needed) and fit it?
