Well i just recently got a 1982 Corolla Sedan. Got it for free from my parents. Just looking into engine swaps options for it. Been looking at a 4age (16v or 20v) or a 3sgte swap.

How hard would it be to do either swap? What would it be like price wise?

well i know how much the engine swap cost alone. I was just wondering how much it would cost to do the swap. and how much labor would be need to get it done and running?

That's the same as asking how long a piece of string is - it all depends on who does it. One place could charge you 1000 and another place could charge you 5000. You'd need to phone around your area, or better yet, go there yourself so you can see what kind of outfit you're dealing with.
