85 Toyota swap suggestions

I had a 22r in my truckk then a 2003 4.3 now what? I was leaning towards a 5.3 vortec.

Any one have any suggestions on a good reliable swap. I have a clean slate to work with and excellent wiring and fab skills. I'm not saying I'm the best there is just I'm not scared to take on a challenge lol.

Basically if you could do a swap what would you do, and why would you do it. I'm just trying to look at the pros and cons of other motors.

Thanks in advanced

Try searching the engine swap forum, especially the 3.4 section.

Toyota 2lt diesel!!

I always see a guy around town running a '79 Nissan truck that NO LIE IS IN WORSE SHAPE THEN MY 85. Ran into him at a gas station and turns out he swapped a little diesel in his little Nissan. Super B.A If you as me
