Nope, nobody with anything that new and that expensive. Most all of the motor swaps on this site are done with a budget in mind. Something tells me that if you have enough money to buy one of these motors, you should either have enough money to pay someone to put it in for you, or have enough fabrication skills to do it yourself.

Maybe a newer Tundra tranny would fit it since its a UR series engine like the 3ur in the Tundra.

ok thank I was just asking to see that all, I might goes with the tundra v8 since it easy to buy or buy a complete old lexus with an v8 like the ls460 and gut everything, the only thing is can the automatic fit in the fj or I have to use a diffrent trans to mate to the 3rd member
