Engine swap Questions Options

[Quante]

Lo all,

I drive an AT200 and wanna put in a 3S-GE engine.
I found a shop near my place that apparantly does these kind of things but I got a few questions that I wanna ask u guys and the compare answers with what they say.

First of all, they say they can use the AT200's tranny with minor adjustments, they even recommended it because the gears were shorter ( more acceleration).
Can the tranny and coupling handle the power or not??

They were gonna keep the old ECU and put in some Computer of they're own to bypass the engine things. Anyone ever heard of this, will this keep the 7AFE's rpm limiter?? I sure hope not.

Are there other things I should be concerned about and need to ask them, like exhaust, axles, suspension, ...

I know there are a lot of posts about engine swaps, but I never found the answers to these questions.

first of all, the tranny you have will NOT bolt up, not with out pointless modification.

buy a front clip with a 3sge in it. it will have a tranny that is fwd and that would be the perfect tranny for a fwd swap.

and as for the ecu, it will not work. you will need either the ecu from a 3sge or a stand alone ems/aftermarket ecu.

a front clip will have all the parts you will need
