are the crankshafts different between the auto and manual truks? specifically the 3.0L V6?

just hoping that I can stick a truck from an automatice 4runner to into my manual tranny truck.

thanks

Same. We are putting Upindair's old 3.0 manual into an automatic truck.

some of the newer 3.4s from autos apparently don't have the crankshaft drilled for a pilot bearing on newer trucks from what i've heard. older engines are all drilled though

This is obviously only critical if you are pulling an auto motor and grafting it to a manual.

that's what I was afraid off, glad the 3.0 is the same either way.
