i did a search and have been trying to find info on what goes wrong when people try to swap a 4a engine into their celi's. it said in the feasible swap sticky that there is some problem when you use the 4a tranny and then i read about something going wrong with the power steering pump. does anyone know what exactly the problem is? coomer and mynzeyes, you guys are the ones with the experience, i'm particularly interested in your input.

btw, i know this topic has been discussed a lot, but there is no real clear cut info on it, so if anyone knows where i can find some please let me know.

thanks

and yes.... the 4a-ge's all use an 8 bolt pattern flywheel (4/7a-fe's DO NOT however... they use a 6 bolt)... you can use an ae86 or early model ae92 flywheel (which is what i'm doing on my smallport 4a-ge) w/o any problems and use the smaller clutch/pressure plate

Really? I thought the bottom ends were nearly identical... and used the same pattern on the flywheel aside from the old 3AC/4AC's and stuff. I could be wrong... but I'll have to check that out. As for the C52... he said he wanted to swap out if at all possible because his tranny's old.
