Toyota 2.2 5S-FE
there is one in denmark up for sale for under 500 pounds. not sure if it's to far to go but i can say they have a good rep for selling nice true engines and front cuts.

think you can add 200 ish for shipping. you can put it out on shiply and see what prices you get. if not contact eb cargo. i have used them and very happy with there service.
indeed, was hoping to go the 5s bottom end to cure the problemms that sometimes occur with 500-600bhp 3s blocks.
Not all the time admittedly, my brothers beast has covered 20k miles at 2.1bar on the 3071 and no problems but many have suffered block wall cracks and i dont want to be
one of the unlucky ones so id rather sell my spare block and bang a 5s with the 3s head.
But yeah, i will be aiming for high 500's to maybe mid 600bhp if i can afford to go for the 5s way.
There is a guy here breaking a car with a 2.2 engine:

yeah they certainly are mate, been on the cards for ages but wanted to stay 3s but to be honest id rather have the more reliabillity.
Yeah robs car uses roy ashleys old engine as far as i am aware which is a 2.2..... but its a 2.2 3sgte using HKS crank and that which means it will be HKS pistons at 87mm which is far too big to risk any reliabillity in a 3s block, wouldnt ever want more than a 86.5mm bore.
the camry is 2.2 out of the blocks so put you in good stead for more reliable power, needs modding to fit the 3s head though
