any K series toyota fits, infact any A and T series toyota engine also fits. Whats wrong with the original 2K engine?

finding a good 4K or 5K with 5 speed transmission will be a safe bet. Wont require alterations. what is wrong with the current engine, a rebuild is also easy.

Yaar put 7ke, 1.8 litre efi engine, in ur KE-25 (1974 Corolla) , it will cost u round 58000/- including labour n fitting..
U can find it any where..
But for a specific place, visit Aehata Mithu Khan Saddar Rawalpindi

Dear can u please tell me the petrol average of above mentioned engines, 4k and 5k i want fuel efficient efi engine because cng is a issue in punjab i think 7k will be heavy on pocket, wats about diesel its a daily driven car. and current engine is going to be end,

Dear Wat are u saying, i am getting 15km per litre n 190 km per 55 kg cylinder CNG, at speed of 90km/hr, reason ur car weight will be less than ur engine power, so u don,t need to give more accelerator for more speed.
Go for 7Ke its best for power & economy.

3sfe is also a safe option

most probably the poor Ke20 would be tattered to bits and the body flexing more than a shoebox, it would be having its original short diff too. I always advise to KEEP IT SIMPLE as possible. Unless you yourself have a hobby workshop in your home. Swapped cars are not plug and play and are a royal PITA to work on sometimes.

dear i just want engine mid range not for racing purpose decent power, fuel economy are my concern any diesel option

Don't go for a diesel option in 74 corolla. Its suspension and frame cannot handle a diesel engine.

3sge is the best option but what about differential
