    1998 non-vvti direct engine swap

    I was wondering if someone knew how to do a direct engine swap with a 98 corolla. I recently found a used 98/99 corolla engine for 250.00 with 60k miles on it. I was wondering how hard would it be to do the swap yourself or what would the cost be for someone to do the sawp for you? I have looked for engine swap info and most of its to swap to a different engine. I want o keep the same engine just for a simple swap. So what are the procedures to pull an engine and put a new one in. Does the repair manual cover engine swaps? thankin advance for any info i can get before i commit to the engine swap. again i am going for the cheapest and most simplistic swap i can do.
