ok... so i have been starting to loose hope completely.... my 3.4 is gone.... but rereading this entire thread made me wanna work on it!... i scored a set of fiberglass fenders today from tear-a-part for 35 bucks! they are like 6 inches wider then stock. im gonna put them on and post pics.

so i need help.... should i find another 3.4, try a super hard 4.0 lexus v8 or just find another 22ret or 22re motor? or .... scrap the project? i figure 22ret will be the easiest way to get it done fast. a 3.4 swap will put me right back to stuck with no wiring and no running truck. its just sitting collecting dust. now with the front axle pulled and torn apart waiting for me to cut my housing for my elocker.... any ideas?????

Put a 22ret back in it and drive it, If you need some help with anything let me know. If I'm not working I'll come over and try to lend a hand.

IMO I say go with the 22ret honestly I was a little disappointed when you got the 3.4 just because at this point you see more 3.4's then 22ret's in sweet rigs plus its a R motor so its built like a tank

99 sas runner

cool sounds good! i will be on the lookout for a ret its gonna be hard to find im sure, i shoulda never sold mine...

99 sas runner

sounds good.. im gonna be looking for a turbo motor. ill post if i find one. ill probly end up building it up for some serious power! haha

99 sas runner

i wonder if i can take a 22re block and install low compression pistons and stuff and have it be the same as a turbo block?

Yeahyou just have to tap in for the oil for the turbo

99 sas runner

hmmm.. i hope i can find a complete one. i sold all my stuff for 250 like a stupid a$$. now i cant find anything

99 sas runner

what do you think of a 7mgte swap?

SAS'd 86Runner

I like it! But then you'll be stuck with the wiring again?

yoterr

dude just get a 22R/RE block and wireing whatever...and build it..im sure you can get an extra 30 horses from rebuilding it .30 over with a cam and head..doesnt HAVE to have a turbo does it? also sweet outcome...it was worth reading the whole thing

99 sas runner

well i dont wanna go 22re. i found a 22ret setup with EVERYTHING shipped from arkansas for around 600 but needs rebuilt. soo i think i might go this way. well see

SAS'd 86Runner

Thats still a pretty good deal, thats what I would do.

99 sas runner

so its gonna be 700 shipped to slc. plus i am still gonna need to build it to hold 20 psi haha

Just work on one truck at a time..Instead of piecing each truck together piece by piece..

Just work on your truck
then while your waiting on parts etc, to be shipped or funds to come in
work on another..

99 sas runner

thats hard to do when you have two third gens and my ex-cab. they all want my money, and i keep letting them have it! lol

99 sas runner

so i might be able to get a low milage supercharged v6 from a like 99 buick for like 200 bucks. good idea?
i will have to pull it from the car, but thats means ill have the full harness and computer. im probly gonna be into a 22ret over 1500 bucks.
