wire harness swap: 22R to 3.0 v6 conversion
I am in the dead center of dropping a 1989 v6 engine swap on a 1987 r22 Toyota 4x4. I am OK with all of it as far as the work goes , i am excellent at " building a bracket" . With this in mind i am wondering if there is an "adaptor" for connecting the computer/engine wire harness with the 1989 3.0 v6 to the 1987 r22 under dash harness. If this adaptor does exist it would save me months of researching wire diagrams to blend the two. Not saying i can't do it, just not looking forward to it as i am trying to do this in a shorter amount of time (before it gets cold).
Thanks a heap guys !

If you are ok with making new mounts, changing wire harness isnt as bad as it may seem. You will need to remove the front fenders and dashpad and some ventilation pipes but it is all assembled easy and the harness is able to be seperated. I would do that then trying to make all of the connections. Hit me up on a PM if you want a better detail instructions on swapping harnesses.
Fenders come off easy enough and I have a dashpad removal video on listed on the first page of my 88 Runner build. I am not as familiar with the 3.0 harness, but am guessing it is just as easy as swapping and seperates the same way. Just thinking if you are going to do it, do it right or you could wind up with electrical gremlins.

Edit: I'm retarded and didn't remember OP was doing 3vz swap. Question for STJ is--are you dealing with 3.0 or 3.4?

Thanx i will take whatever help is offered, tho it has come to a standstill due to family matters so it probably will not end up being compleated before it gets cold lol ! But if you are offering i'm taking!
