Engine Swap Question, 7AFE to a 5SFE Options

[Raves44]

Hey there i was wondering if anyone on here has done the swap from a 7afe to a 5sfe. I am curious about doing this swap. I have a 95 st and i have had it for 3 years and I am ready for more power. I know that the power difference is not much but lets face it doing a 3sgte swap on a daily driver is very expensive for a college student and also would not be able to drive it assuming how long the swap would take. I have been looking and i would be getting the whole clip from a gt since i would have to do the motor, motor mounts tranny axles and such. I also see that you can do a lot to the 5sfe as opposed to the 7a. If anyone has done the swap i am curious on how difficult it is and since i would be doing a lot of the same to do the 3s if it would take that much time as well. Any input is appreciated.

also i am looking into this because i found a gt at the junkyard with the full front clip, mor for like $200 and it sounds like a steal

Thanks

yea i have done the 7a to a 5s swap, and its not worth it. And i just did it because my 7a died and i had a junk camary. i know if u got the gt clip it would be alot easyer than doin it with a camary, but if your lookin 4 a fast easy swap, go with the 4age, or a 4agze, if you can find one.
