When taking the head off the 7afe engine block is there gaskets, specialized tools needed or anything else I might regret having when I change the pistons? (I really need a Celica manual)

The 4AG pistons with 20mm wrists do fit... but only with modification to the 7AFE rods (full float versus press fit pins). 4AGZE pistons will raise compression mated to the 7AFE head... but will lower compression on the 4AG (in a 7AG hybrid build) head. You won't be able to do anything to the pistons and rods without a press and the proper tools (press plates, etc for the pistons), otherwise you might as well kiss the pistons and rods goodbye. If you've NEVER built an engine before... this is NOT a good place to start... switching parts and doing custom work is not for beginners.
