i have a 1.8 celica (96) with a smokey engine which i believe is the piston rings. but i have managed to find a low mileage engine for a good price but it is a 2.0. does anyone know if this swop will fit without major work?? thanx.

The location is about the same but on the GT it's a little further back, when swapping into an ST you need to drill two holes for the mount but it's not as hard as it sounds... the locations are marked on the frame rail.
