I just bought a 1990 AWD Camry. It's been hard finding aftermarket parts for the AWD model. I'm wondering if you guys have any suggestions or advice. I believe i have the 3S-FE, a website said that the 2VZ-FE was also available that year on a Camry but i dont think i have that. I'm wondering what would be a good engine swap, also any other advice would greatly be appreciated. Thanks.

3s-gte would be a good engine swap. If you look up "3s-fe engine swap" with search you should find a lot of info.

3S-FE 2.0L 4 cyl block
2VZ-FE 2.5L V6 block

a lot of parts from 3S and 5S blocks can be made to fit your 3SFE. If you swap, 3SGTE or 3SGE would get you more hp at the crank. Good resources on potential mods would be 88LE or Talisman18 on these forums, since they've modded Gen 2 Cams (which is what yours is, if you didn't know).
