of the top of my head you will need quite a few things....gearbox to use is t-50 out of a ae71,ae86 for example..motor to use is a bigport 4age in rwd from a ae86 would be ideal... but hard to find... so a small port 4age out of fwd corolla will do... but will require some modding of the inlet manifold, custom extracters. other things to think of are custom engine mounts,electric fuel pump, custom tailshaft to name a few...

what would be a ball park figure?

I suggest you click on the FAQ section in the top bar, my website s-86.com might also have a few usefull articles for you.

 

Other than that look up toyota A engine on wikipedia and do some searching on here.

I've just done 4age conversion on my ke70. A lot easier because ae71 stuff just bolted in. Cost me about $3000-3500,including buying engine,g/box,radiator,modded t/shaft etc...May cost a bit more for earlier model(more custom stuff required) and depending on how serious you wanna go. I'd allow $4000-5000. Have fun,they go great when it's done. :D
