I'm switching the motor out of my 1994 ST that had an engine failure just two weeks after I bought it. I found a 1994 Corolla Motor that is the 7afe 1.8L and I have been told uses the same block and the same heads.

Has anyone here used a motor out of a Corolla to replace their engine? I'm wondering how much time it has taken people and how much difficulty they had.

I was also told by a mechanic that they do not use the same mounts despite (apparently) being the same motor. Is he right or should it basically be drop in?
