my car has been leakin oil out by my oil pressure switch so I went to replace the switch. I figured it had never been done and it would be a good idea if it was leaking. so i took it out and put in a new one. I literally watched the crack spread on my block. It wasnt the switch that was leaking it was my block. There was a small crack on the underside near the switch and by putting in a new switch, it spread the crack and started a new one. so now my car is undriveable and I am being force to cruise in my mothers minivan. I was thinking of taking apart my engine, selling the good parts and getting a supra engine put in. what do you guys think?HELP PLEASE!!

thanks
nate

The question is not how far. The question is, do you possess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far as is needed?

Ok well it's already been said Supra motor is a no go- Look in the sticky, it lists all the possible swaps.

if you want an easy fix get anothe 5s. If you want to swap and want more power go with the 3sgte swap.

There is a ton of info of that swap around here, The beams is a 3sge which you could aslo do, but as far as I know the wiring is a big issue, also a lot more people have done the 3sgte swap so they are more likely to know the answers to some of your questions.
