i have a manual 4k ke55 corolla 1980 model and wanting to put a 5k engine in it. will the manual gearbox fit on to the 5k engine? will the 5k bolt onto the mounts on the corolla? is there any decent diffs that will fit the ke55 with minimal work?

ke55reppin, as springersrolla eluded to, this has been covered a few times. here is a thread with a bit of info.

essentailly the 5k is almost identical to the 4k, except it has a few more CC's.

 

as for differentials, unfortunately pretty much anythign that isnt standard will need some fairly decent mods to fit. what do you want a different differential for?

Standard diff will live behind a 5k without to much stress if you don't drive it like a dick.
