4.3 vortec swap?

80yotaman · 10-02-2008, 03:30 PM

I have a 1980 toyota with about 7in of lift. I already have a 4.3 engine complete with a computer and wiring harness. With that how much on average would i spend to put this in my yota using my tranny?

I also think you may need a different tranny and I would recommend the r-series R-150f check out marlin crawler about that and or craigslist for deals. may need rebuilds on used but thats easy!

2 or 3k after you get done. Its not cheap. I am nearly finished swapping in a 350. Adapters, drivelines, radiators, motor mounts, exhaust, wiring, tranny, all that stuff adds up.
