3sgte And 3sfe Block Differences

[flyingtele]

My celica needs a new block because the current one is scored, and I cant afford to get it bored and new oversized pistons and rods etc, so I figured just replace the block. It is an st185, with a gen 2 3sgte. can i use the block off a 3sfe?

No the 3sfe is a completely different block

Shame you're not in the UK, as I have a replacement 3sgte block for sale

how bad is it scored? you can go to 86.5mm or 87mm if you are not running a lot of power

Yes, but that means i need to pay for machine work, and new pistons and rings, and new conrods etc and I am very short on cash.
