have a look on google,
There's loads of information.
If you want simplicity go the 1.6 carb.

That's a 4AGE isn't it?
Unless you have excellent fabrication skills it is a shitfight to put in a Sierra.
You'd need:
Custom engine mounts.
Custom radiator mounts.
RWD gearbox to suit 4A motor (rare and expensive) OR custom bellhousing adaptor and clutch.
Custom jackshaft.
Hydraulic clutch master fitted to firewall/custom clutch pedal....etc etc etc

3K/4K/5K Corolla motors used to be fitted to LJ's & Sierras but that was a long time ago.

Short answer is.... get the 87 corolla and take it to scrap.. you'll get $80-$100 for it..

I may regret saying this, but Dellow still make the kits to put K motors into Sierras and LJs.
