Rebuild old 3.4 or go 1UZ

My 5VZ needs:
-Headgaskets
-All other gaskets along the way
-Injectors flow tested
-Heads Machined (not sure if they are cracked)
-Fix exhaust leak
-Motor mounts

Or just go with a low mileage 1uz for a few dollars more?

1uz swap is a lot of work but I have yet to see someone disappointed with the results.

If ya got the time/money, I say swap it.
