well after getting hit and run my idea for the beams motor went down the drain, i figred while its in the shop i might as wel get it swapped w/ the 4age 20 valve silvertop,anyways my question is how much do these swaps tend to run? and where can i find a 4age silvertop engine?oh yeah and time is a problem too the swap cant any longer than a couple of weeks.I basically just want to know whatt i would need?(clip or engine better?dont see the point in the clip since its a celica not a corolla) for the swap and what all neeeds to be done.i loooked around but couldnt seem to find anything:( anyways thanks in advance

Yeah the silvertop swap in the Celica ST isn't bad at all, there's a few out there, I know because I did the wiring harnesses for them smile.gif

Anyway, yes, you can use the stock 7A tranny. The blacktop is not really easier or harder to swap, but it's newer and more expensive... and more powerful.
