Here is what I paid for my modifications to my motor:

Egr delete ..... free
8 mm wires ..... 50 dollars
7 mge AFM ..... 50 dollars from a junkyard
Intake tube...... 20 dollars
Flamethrower injectors.... 120 dollars
Headers..... used... 60 dollars...

I am a cheap opportunist so I wait for the deals. Otherwise I would have a lot more money into it

If you can't haul a mower with your in stock form you have maintenance issues. Read the entire thread called " what everyone should know about the 3vze". Memorize it word for word before you change anything on your truck.

look into the:
7mge afm swap
EGR delete
timing advance
8 mm wires
free flowing exhaust
headers
injectors
over bored Throttle body
weezy cams


I have given you your homework assignment. it is up to you to decide what you want to do
Not all of us have friends at the Toyota dealership to give us free headers and whatnot bone collector.

+1.

I prefer diesel as a fuel source, but think I'll be looking at doing diesel on Landcruiser looonggg before I look at doing it on the 3vze/pickup. I personally can't justify spending $7.5k+ over a 3.4 swap just to have a diesel, with no performance and marginal mileage gains...

If your having trouble backing up the trailer, try putting the truck into 4Lo before backing up. If you have manual hubs, this will still work with them UNLOCKED(2Lo).
