Much thanks to those who read and help me.

That'd be a loooong project man. 20rs are possibly the most reliable engine toyota made. Low hp sure but also a million mile engine.

To some any swap is all most impossible.

To some dropping a Cummins 4 cylinder is a two weekend project taking it easy.

Your only limited by the budget and your skills.Time for the project.

If you can merge wire harnesses and fabricate most anything can be done.
