Ford 302 into 1990 Toyota Fore-Runner

Hello;

I'm new and have read all your Threads on 302 conversions first. I also have the Advance Adapters book on the conversion. Know it inside out but......

However, I do have some questions still.

I have a 2wd 1990 4-door Fore-Runner (4cyl. 22re) My goal is to put a rebuilt 1976 Ford 302 carb'd version c/w a new standard 5 speed Ford t5 tranny into my truck. (just for info. only, This is a highway truck purpose only. (not an off-roader one). Has anyone done this before? My question is to anyone, do I need a body lift of 2" or 3"? The conversion book recommends a min. of 2" body lift for the conversion. I think this should apply for 2wd version too. This is for the clearance of the bellhousing to the firewall. It looks like the Ford t5 bellhousing is tall than a Toyota 4cyl one but really don't know about the Toyota v6 bellhousing since I have only owned 4cyl. Toyota versions only. I know the front oil pan problem will not be a problem for me as it will clear the front diff or in my case axle tube. I also know that the Ford t5 tranny has a slight tilt to it too. No worries there.

Thanks for your time,
Rpdtoyz
