well I think your talking about the 5sgte or 5sge. If your talking about taking the block of a 5sfe and the head of a 3sge or 3sgte. 5s would be the revision of the block and the gte or ge would be the type of head. You would need the block of a 5s, i think there was something about certain blocks having odd water jackets, and the head of a 3sg(t)e motor. You would also need the electronics for the 5sfe because i think the gte and ge motors use AFM for load sensing instead of MAP. Youll also have to find out how your going to deal with the difference in fueling. Also if you plan on going turbo ull need to find out how your going to lower your Compression Ratio. I think TTE had a 1.2mm MLS headgasket but im not sure if they are around anymore. Well so far thats what i know off the top of my head, feel free to ask more questions. Oh yea, ive also built one of these motors for a Celica I had back in the day.
