Since its been modded with a Buick motor you'd have to un-mod it to get a Toyota motor in there. Toy motors that will fit in there are the 22R, 22RE, and 3VZE V6. You would have to get the bell housing from the junkyard also since you have a custom one in there now.

You say its an '86 and the suspension is the only good thing on it. The suspension must have beem modified to. '86 was the first year of independant front suspension. Does it still have the IFS? That makes a difference in what motors will fit also.
