Has anybody here ever mated a 3sge redtop to a e154f?
I have an AE95 alltrac sedan and I'd like to swap a really nice engine like the redtop into it. It has the 4afe which has a different bellhousing than the 3sge so I think my best option is to also swap in the e154f transmission. My intuition tells me that it is the same block as the 3sgte which would mate up perfectly with the e154f, but I'm not sure. I'm a little worried about interference with the transfer case. Has anybody ever actually mated a BEAMS redtop to a Celica Alltrac transmission? Did it fit perfectly or did you have to grind some? |

The BEAMS Greytop came bolted up to an AWD transmission in the Caldina and Rav4's, so they'll bolt up just fine.
 I'll go into more details a little bit later today as time permits.

I'm not confident in my assumption but I'd guess the greytop rav4 is the same. The transfer case is much narrower on an auto transmission. It's easy to tell by googling a few pictures to see the difference. |
