1uz-fe into 1st gen 4runner
ok so ive started on another swap .. we were waiting for the 3.0 to sell , finally did so now onto this swap.
So the owner of this truck wants to try and do this with out a body lift , so well be lowering the front diff and modifing the sc oil pan .
wants to try and keep a/c and cruise control.
will be using the following
1992 sc400 1uz (modified oil pan)
1992 ls 400 auto tranny
inchworm prerunner adapter
no body lift
DIY wiring
SC 400 cluster
2001 tundra exhaust manifolds
3.0 radiator modified with 5 row core

Where do you keep finding these motors ? I keep thinking about trying to pick up a donor vehicle..
Scuba these motors can be found pretty cheap , i bought a whole wrecked car for $125 , the owner had started to part it out but then needed to get it out from his driveway really quick.
and the engine thats sitting on the engine stand in the above pick was bought for $200 with the complete exhaust and cluster from a Sc400
