I posted about a week ago that I was having problems with my 3.0L. I did a compression check and the #6 cylinder was at 30psi.

I am going to do a swap to the 3.4L. I have checked around and am not finding much info. Do any of you guys know of any sites that have good info on this? Thanks!

This one is into a 2nd Gen. I think there are additional hood clearance issues on the 1st Gens.

 

isnt 89 a second gen?

 

I thought 2nd Gens started in 90. I've been wrong before...

 

1990 was the first year for the 2nd generation 4Runners. I have an 89 4runner and it is a 1st generation. The trucks started the 3rd generation in 89...a year earlier than the 4runner body change.

 

thanks, i never knew that.

 

Hood height should be similar between a 1st and 2nd gen. I think the article with the 3.4 swap into a 1st gen required a hood cutout because the guy didn't have a body lift. I've heard 1" body lift is mandatory and others say 2". Only complete one I know of has a 2" body lift.

 

I have a 1" body lift on mine...so we'll see if it works. If it doesn't, I'm debating on whether to go to a 2" body lift or just add a hood scoop.

 

Your record of one error EVER is still intact Cebby. Make sure you inform your wife

 

My ears still ring from the whack across the head with the frying pan - from the last time I "reminded" her that I'm always right...

What was the one error? I've erased it from my memory obviously.
