5SFE Swap with emmisions questions
Hello, I am in NY and I have a 1994 Camry with blown 5SFE and the under hood sticker says California emmisions. The only used replacement engines I can find are for Federal emissions standards. Will this plug right in or what additional work is needed to make this fit. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Good question.
The Calif car had an extra 02 sensor, differant distributor, compuiter, O2 sensors, injectors, CYLINDER HEAD and maybe EGR valve. There could be more differances.
The 1995 Calif had an extra converter that was bolted to the exhaust manifold. Not sure on the 1994. If you have this the Fed engine will not.
The engine block was changed for all 5S-FE something around 1995 including a change in the crank gear the turns the balance shafts.
Would think if you got an engine that was close in year you could swap the external parts.
Around 1996 Toyota started to modify the ign system by adding external sensors for cam then crank, finally removing the distributor around 1999.
Check online part sites such as www.rockauto.com and compare parts. Parts that are differant between California and Fed will be noted as: Fed, Calif, not for use in California, not shipped to California, excluding California, CA, with California emissions, etc.
The short block appeard to be the same between Fed and CA.
