3t-gte Into a 79 Corona

[toyrota mota]

Ok i have a 79 corona wagon with 3t engine in it. It has also had a 5speed conversion, unsure at this stage which gearbox it is. From what i understand the 3t-gte will bolt pretty much straight in and all ill really have to worry about is piping, wiring, fuel lines etc, is this correct? Oh and what about the radiator would that need to be changed? Also what else would i need to get a cert, how would the brakes need to be upgraded? Any advice would be helpfull
Cheers

gearbox will be a t50, which won't handle a 3tgte for too long

brake wise you should be o.k as coronas tend to have large vented brakes up front anyway

Oh ok what would be need to put a w55 or w5whateva in? Ok just wondering i saw a later model corona wagon on trademe with a 3tgte swap and he had changed the struts to cressida items i think, why would he do this?
