    I did an engine swap on my Celica... it was a 3S-FE (I read that instruction sticker under the hood) How do I check what engine we swaped in?

    My friends and I did the engine swap, put it in but I don't know what type of engine it was. All we knew is that they were the same year and they looked the same ^^ pretty awesome eh? This is what I know:

    The wiring harness was different from the 3S-FE
    The replacement engine was from a 1989 Celica hatchback "SE"
    The REPLACED engine was 1989 Celica hatchback "GT"

    Could I possibly have a 3S-GE?

    and unless you changed the ecu, you have the same motor you took out.

    could not tell ya
    it may be from a damaged harness while you were doing the swap or perhaps you guys missed something that you found when you plugged it in. or perhaps you had a rare Cali car.

    just noticed you have an 89. that is the only year that there may have been the updated computer. perhaps that was your issue.

    not as much as you'd like. a conical filter, 2.25 pipes (which it sounds like you have), and a header and that's it for that motor.
