So are you up and running yet?

How many hours labor do you have in it so far?

Any updates on the swap? What are you using for drive lines? Chev adapted to yota or yota adapted to chev? How are you adapting them?

Why the hell would you use a yota v6 radiator?
That thing can barely cool a 4.3 v6.

I am swapping a chevy 350 into a toyota that originally had the 3.0 v6, unfortunately i did not label any of the wires except for the injectors and the alternator wires. I know how stupid, but now i need to know what wires i need and how to wire the stock gauges. Help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, DJ

Yes a gear driven t-case will hold up just fine.
Chain driven case is weaker, but it should still handle a little abuse.

Hi everybody!
First off i just bought a 85 toy pickup, with a 350 small block in it and a TH400 tranny.
The guy i bought it from didn't wire it up in fact most the wires are pretty much torn out. Does anyone know the condensed way to get the truck running besides trying to read the wiring manual and trace every single wire back to the key, battery etc.

Any help at all would greatly be appreciated so that i can get it running at least once before we deploy.

I have a 307 and I want to put in in my 91 pickup. Should I use the yota tranny and x-case? I'm building a little trophy truck
