I am always on the look out for the easy way, and head replacement is that. Just do a good inspection of the valve and valve seats on the donor head. You will probably have to keep the cam covers from the 1999. Do NOT remove the VVT from the front of the cam, too much trouble to get it back on.

Get a new Tbelt, tensioner, etc if you need it. Also a good time to replace the PCV system and clean the intake manifold/throttle body.

BTW, it doesn't matter if it is AWD or FWD.
