It'll fit... but it's not as easy as that DIY makes it sound. There will be a lot of custom work, wiring, mechanical, and what-not. Not to mention, the 5sfe Block/crank isn't as tough as the 3sgte block/crank, so the .2 liters displacement isn't gonna be a very large advantage. It wouldn't make for a very reliable turbo application unless you have the block and crank fully built for boost. Even if you decide to go n/a...the 3sgte head isn't as good of an n/a head as a 3rd or 4th gen 3sge head... which have different cooling ports, and valve seats. The 3sgte head is built for boost... an n/a application is not practical.
