Will the pistons interfere with the valves? anyone know what needs to be done? I know of a guy who did it in a corolla forum, but i thought i would ask here too.

IMO, you seem to not really know what you're asking or wanting to do... or what sort of work this involves... I mean, it's really a lot easier to source an entire SS2 clip than it is to find just the head+various parts...and then rebuilding it as a custom application on a 5sfe block... that is gonna be much more difficult than swapping in a 3sge...

yes, you are right, I'm not exactly sure what I want to do, but thats why I'm asking so many Q's. Time and effort are not an issue with me, money could be depending on what happends.. but I honestly thought it would be easier to swap the head than the entire engine.

I know where I can get a 4th gen (USDM) celica 3SGE head, for a joke, but what kind of gains would that head give?

thanks for the help Kwanza.
