Ford motor in a Toyota? I suggest a mental evaluation first. (kidding)

Lots of guys do a 3.4 swap for bad 3.0's

Or just rebuild the 3.0

Ford motor is a terrible idea.

well, anytime you do a cross model swap there will be a wiring and fitment issues. That could cost more that rebuilding the existing or replacing with a 3.4. Motor mounts, bell housing adapter, and wiring would be the biggest problem.
