How involved is this swap? I know the 88 Nova had a Twin Cam option with presumably the same transmission as the 4AC, but what parts other than the engine itself and the mounts for it would I need?

Engine and all components, ECU, wiring, all sensors, fuel pump and high pressure fuel lines, fuel tank, radiator and all plumbing.

Thats all off the top of my head, it might be more complicated than that but im not sure... unless you absolutely have to have this car with 16 valves and EFI, sell it and save up for a 4age-equiped nova/rolla

Ah, okay.

Yeah, I might as well just try to find an FX-16. Since people keep buying up all the AE86s, I'm sure FX-16 Rollas are more common on the used market despite being basically the same car with FWD.
