Lots of research first is what I would do as this and many other swaps have nemourous threads about the how to's and in's and outs of it all. Your tranny will worjk but you will need the 4cyl turbo bellhousing from an r151f. you have a r150f with a chain drive case. Search more and you shall find all you are looking for on this swap

going to be a very tight fit, and that engine has alot of wierd positiond things, like its hard to get to alot of vacumm lines, bolts and water lines on that engine, its a hose mess sometiems.

not for a 5M/7M swap, if he has an r150f, he needs to buy a custom bellhousing (around $350 dollars). if he has the 4 cylinder w56 transmission, then he needs to buy the bellhousing off the supra transmission (must also be a 5 speed).

For the 4 cylinder swap (22R series), simply use 5MGE motor mounts and the 7M block will fit on your original frame welded mounts. use the bellhousing, clutch, flywheel, clutch fork, and slave cylinder from the Supra, everything will bolt up real nice.

I intend to do this swap (seriously haha, not just talk) from my 3VZE to a 7MGTE. I will need to move my motor mounts and purchase the adapter bellhousing, and 5 speed swap my truck all at once haha. Its not as straight forward as the 4 cylinder swap, but the V6 manual is far more stout and will deal much better with my turbo charged swap. I plan to do some mods and am hoping to pull at least 300 horsepower at the rear wheels. its gonna be the truck from hell hahaha

but anyways, here is a good site for information:
Supra Charged!

bellhousing you'd need for a 3VZE swap:

On second examination, it doesn't look as if you can actually purchase that bellhousing... make your own haha!
