blown head gasket to engine swap

so i have been having some problems with my car overheating lately. so i ended up taking my car to a toyota shop down here in SoCal and they told me that they think that the head is blown (even though they pressurized the system and there wasnt a very big leak, but they found hydrocarbons in my coolant.)

but anyways. i was either looking at getting a rebuilt or i would want to try and swap a third generation engine into my '94 (is that even possible?) and would i be able to put a newer tranny in too?

looking for more horse power. the car still seems pretty slow. and i have a brand new tranny in my car and it still seems to shift funny and when im cruising at 75 or 80 im at 3000 rpms.

yeah not real fast goes good off road though. i think if i were in that spot i might look into rebuild with cams and headers exaust stuff like that . not sure about a program ..weigh your . options... good luck.
