Hello all, a friend brought me his 2002 corolla with a bad bottom end, and a motor he sourced for a replacement.
The trouble I am running into is the donor motor is non vvt, and from my
Reading, it is not feasible to swap this motor in, is it?
What happens if the car thinks the vvt actuator is unplugged, would it be drivable?
Could I swap the heads between the motors easily?
Could I simply find an ecu from a non vvt car?
The first difference I noticed was that the donor motor has cool packs, an the car had coil over plug. The next was that te throttle
Body was different, no big deal there, but I am concerned about the drivability of switching to a non vvt motor
Thanks in advance...
Aaron
