Engine swap question.

Hi All. I have a 22re engine out of 1992 toyota truck.
I found a 1989 toyota truck with a blown 22re.
Will everything line up? 2 year difference, wondering how much changed? Thanks. Tim.

Should fit, almost a direct swap.

A few differences to watch out for:
-wire colors
-vacuum lines
-exhaust
-emissions
-ecm

If you think you can handle turning a wrench, you should be fine.

injectors are not compatible with each other, different resistance values. '89 was a one-year only injector. also, that's a three-year difference, not two.

If you do a "long block" swap (re use your intake and exhaust manifold and all accessories and dizzy - and they are both "lazer" blocks (which off the cuff they are) then Im pretty sure everything works.....

But I can see that it can be "faster" to just stab it in there...

Good to know 1989 had its own injectors.

For some reason, I thought it was the 1988 trucks that had the one-year-only injectors...

I could be thinking of something else though.
