Ok well I'm doing some research on things before I go buy a 5th gen or 6th gen which I prefer. I'm planning for a project car and it seems to me to get a better in expenses is just get a 5th gen All-Trac. But in the other hand the 6th gen is much better in looks and will be better in performance, just the thing is the expenses. But to cut to the point anyone here know or has done a 3sgte conversion head to a 5s,7a motor etc...

I think one guy one here has done the 4AGE head on his 7AFE, but I have no clue if anyone has the done a 3SGE head swap.

The 3sgte head will fit on to the 5sfe block and has been done over and over in MR2's. For more info go to mr2oc.com. Doing the swap in a 6th Gen will be as costly, complicated, and time consuming as doing a whole 3sgte swap. Also... the better performer is going to be the 5th gen all trac... it has all wheel drive.. the only advantage the 6th gen has is style... and lots of it to boot
