swap the whole motor.

the head will bolt up since both the 4age, and 4ac have the A block. but your pistions aren't the 4age ones. Neither is your crank or rods, your better of taking the whole 4age motor and dropping it in

I can't see why you couldn't since they are both 4a blocks but still

But to do it your way you need to make the 4age carb'd since you won't have the ecu or any of the other stuff needed to run the efi, unless you went stand alone.

is the car auto or 5spd?

Do the whole motor, it's probably cheaper and easier.

if your getting the ecu and harness you might as well do the whole motor. It'll be easier.
