Yes, that's the beauty of the "F" heads (4AFE, 5SFE, etc.), they use a slave cam setup. The 22-degree valve angle mandates a slave cam setup.

I say it's time for a 3S-GTE swap.

Depending what importer you go through, anywhere from 1500-3000. The MR2 engine will work, but you'll need the basic accessories brackets and such from the 5sfe engine. tranny will bolt up either way (not the awd tranny), and wiring will be pretty straight forward, with exception of plug number 3, have fun. There's a lot of info on Celica.net, check it out.
