'97 3.4l (5vz) engine with engine harness and ecu. It has an estimated ~140k on it. Timing belt was done at 94k. Would rather not ship, but if it doesn't move I may consider it. $800. I got this thinking I was going to do another conversion, but I decided that I was kidding myself.

Here's more detail:

I don't have all the vitals since I received it as part of a package deal with a '95 4Runner that had a rod knock. The '95 is just going to end up with a rebuilt 3.0 instead of a conversion.

Basically what I know so far is that it looks clean, the t-belt was changed at 95,667 on 2/17/2004 using a Toyota belt, probably done at a dealer. It is out of a 1997 4Runner (not sure if it was a Limited or SR5, but shouldn't be of consequence) and had an automatic behind it. There is no evidence of oil sludging. My estimate is that it has 136K on it, but I'm estimating that it's been out of the vehicle for the last year. Then I take the average mileage (13,666/yr) for the first 7 years and multiply it by ten. Not the most scientific, but it's probably close.
Includes:
everything from the throttle body to the oil pan
from the fan back to the flywheel/flexplate bolts
exhaust manifolds
crossover pipe
motor mounts
accessory mounts (p/s, alt, a/c)
coils/plug wires
engine harness 82121-3D400
ECU 89661-3D321 (mfg date 97.1.27) 5VZ 4X4 A/T

Does not include:
flywheel or flexplate
accessories (p/s pump, a/c comp., alt, starter)

Possible trades: A 3.4l 2nd gen supercharger? SAS parts for my '93 4runner? A high pinion e-locker w/4.88's to run in a '85 toy front axle? An early ('86-'95) IFS front axle with 4.88's and an ARB? Would consider interesting trades.

Do you have a VIN from the donor vehicle? Do you know if the engine was running and why it was pulled?

aLostDawg

No VIN. Yes the engine was running. It was pulled from a wrecked 4Runner. This is what I know.

Lysmachia

You got the PM from Troy (tc)....?

aLostDawg

Yes, and I did respond.

aLostDawg

Make me an offer I can't refuse? Or, maybe I should say. Make me an offer. I can't refuse.

RobD

So, you're giving up on swapping it or giving up on a much bigger project with it?

Lysmachia

Gotta to talk to troy - offer may be made within a few hours...

aLostDawg

Really at this time I don't have the time or money to do the swap. I've already done one that I've been driving for the last 3+ years (see sig line). The 95 may end up being a project vehicle, but a little further down the road. Although I'm considering parting it out too.

I did tell my wife, jokingly, that if it didn't sell I'd put it on the go-cart project my son and I are building. That's probably a little overkill though.

aLostDawg

Thanks Molly & Troy. That was a great transaction. Hope you made it home safe.

Lysmachia

Yeah the roads were interesting! Getting it back outta Julie's truck and into our garage was even more fun since the engine hoist we had wasn't pumping up properly. But we managed and got to bed around 2:00 am!

So now I have a My very own 500 LB hunk of metal and plastic paperweight sitting in my garage LOL...
