Asked by captainbuck Jan 04, 2020 at 04:06 PM about the 1989 Toyota Celica GT-S Convertible

Question type: General

my 2.0 has several 1,000 miles on it and just blew a head gasket. Love my Celica so was wondering if could put a more up to date and little bigger engine in it

Drop in implies that you can bolt it in and drive away. Probably not. What exact engine are you referring to?

You can do all sorts of things if you are a fabricator. What you can't do is make most of these swaps safe and work correctly or be smog legal.
