Recently bought a 1982 pickup with a new 22r and head i'm planning on taking my efi off of my 85 auto and putting on the 82 manual 5 speed will the ecu swap over fine or do I need to look for a new one if so which ecu should I go for thanks

 

It will work, but how do you plan on wiring it up, are you going to make it a stand a lone system ?.

 

I'm not sure what stand alone means can you explain? I'm a newbie when it comes to efi my old mans buddy who's also his engineer on the tugboat they work on offered to come over to do the swap when they both get back from Alaska they asked me to get as much info on it as I could

 

Your 82 22R is a carbed engine, there is no computer for anything on your truck. to make the fuel injection work your going to need the computer and complete wiring harness swapped into your 82 truck for it to work. Its not a simple swap, but there are some here that have done it. I think you should do some searching and reading before you jump into this.

 

Ya ive been searching and researching for about 2 weeks now and have the thread on pirate about the swap with wiring diagrams and also the swap from this forum on a first gen swap and my dads buddy that is coming over to help with it is an extremely good mechanic and really smart with electrical and is somewhat familiar with toyotas so I'm hoping with all the info I've gathered on it we can get it done. He was the one who suggested it since I'm going to be using it as my dd and it's going to be going up and down the mountain near my house a lot during winter.
