3VZ to 3RZ Swap
Hey there!
I'm looking for some info regarding an engine swap from a 3VZ to a 3RZ. I know it is way easier to swap in a 5VZ instead, but I was looking to do something more interesting like a 3RZ turbo. My truck is a 1989 pickup 2WD with an extended cab and a stock 3VZ-E. My engine is getting old and has a few issues, so I want to do a swap when it goes. There is an abundance of parts to help with this task out there, but the one piece I can't find any info on is the engine mounts. All of the mounts that I found are for a 22R/RE which wouldn't match up. I assume I would have to do custom work to fabricate a mount for it. so I'm looking for any info/ criticism regarding info, not just about mounts, but about really anything regarding a swap. I have never done a swap before so all help is appreciated.
Thanks!
