Ok, i did some searching near my house, and a guy had import cars near his house, and he said they were for parts only! no resale of the car. He has 1 Toyo Celica which was T-Boned and the whole end is practicaly missing. BUT! The speedometer says, 40354! Damn thats low! He said he got it from an auction in PA! So i popped what was left of the hood, and it has a beautiful 5sfe in there, since some people like TI know i have been having problems. So if i purchased this engine would it be a clean swap, or would i have problems because its been in a accident?!!!
Thanks,
Ryan

p.s. anyone interested he has 1 good headlight left on the passenger side its the low beam.

Police chase? I'd stay away from it. probably got ran REAL hard...

Camry 5sfe motor should work fine, like they said, may have to use your mounts and also possibly other things like water outlet if it point at a different angle or something, your distributor etc., other bolt-on brackets , what ever is unique to the celica, if you have a 5sfe now, it would be no problem, but trying to go this route on an ST wouldn't work, you would have to collect ALL the Celica 5sfe parts that are different 1st,,,
