I have a line on a possible donor Tacoma for my 3.4 swap. I'm curious as to opinions regarding whether getting my stuff from a roll over is even worthwhile to think about. The Taco in question is a 1999 3.4 with a 5 speed, and, unfortunately, unknown milage. The front and top seem to be in pretty good shape, but both sides are pretty much toast, as far as the sheet metal is concerned. The price has the potential to be great (auction situation), but I'm unsure about the problems that I might encounter with a rolled engine.

Opinions? Concerns?

Thanks for the help, folks!

I'd be concerned about how long it was down-side-up and if the owner ensured all the oil and other fluids were back where they belonged before he tried to fire it up again.
My 3.0 locked right up when I tried to start it after a roll-over.
