Geos, Toyota converting Chevy owners Options

[97lestyousay]

I was just thinking about how I used to have and buy mostly Chevys then bought a 91 Geo Prizm.
I learned about the dependablity of the 7a and other Toyotas. I think other people have been converted this way.

Why is it like that? I swear the engines look exactly the same from the top. I thought there was no way it was the 1.6 turboed. I've even heard of guys mounting the turbo manifold on the non turbo 1.8 to turbo them. Why is that? What's going on with this. Did they use the same head and a smaller block? I never would have guessed it was a 1.6 turbo. I've had it in my head that that was the 1.8 turboed for so long that I'm having trouble believing this.

EDIT: I looked up the years too. I assumed since the Storm was made untill 93 that it's conterpart the Impulse would have been made untill the same year. That's the bad thing about assuming.
