Also the VVT in the BEAMS is not a true VVT. its wither on or off. its not constantly adjusting like the newer engines are.

No, that's the 4A-GE. VVT-i in the BEAMS is precisely the same, constantly changing timing that is seen in today's engines. 4A-GE = VVT, BEAMS = VVT-i.

Ask richee3 he's seen mine
There's more room between the motor an firewall in my celica than his rx330

mi645- Here on 6gc, we're a pretty helpful bunch of people, but information on what to look for in a new engine is pretty commonplace. We'll help you as long as you're willing to help yourself, and so far all I've seen in this thread is "somebody do it for me." Not trying to bash or be a jerk, but a simple Google search would give you any answer you want.
