Nope, they have similar engine names, but share virtually no parts (ie: maybe the oil cap lol). They are completely different blocks that just happened to have a very similar name. The truck engine is a 3VZ-E and the Camry is a 3VZ-FE (suits the Camry really nicely actually).

Matt, he wasn't asking it he could swap parts, he was asking if it drop in the bay. I'm it could be made to fit......unless it was a transferse (sideways) engine.

Should have made it clearer. its a transverse-mounted engine. Looks nothing like the truck engine. The starter for one is up on top of the bell housing, you couldn't match it up to a truck tranny, the exhaust would be all wrong and so on...

It simply won't work.

Don't bother, there are much better, easer swaps available. Like a 5vzfe
