    Is the 19AWD a 2Z 1.8 ? Then probably so as I would imagine anything dealing with the four-wheel drive will be past the torque plate

    Still investigating my options... Can the heads be swapped between 3g and 4gs?
    I have my old 2012 head and wondering about just putting that on my 2016 block that's still in the 2012 car...

    Yes, from what I've read only the Corolla, RAV4 & CH-R had the 2.0L that early on in the US from what I understand reading. Priuses had the 1.8L up until 2022. Wondering if the Wiki can use some updating if otherwise? Toyota Dynamic Force engine - Wikipedia
