This is my build thread for my 1986 Toyota- 1994 chev 4.3L Vortec.

When i first bought this truck it had a seized engine so i started looking and decided to do Chev 350 swap first i had every thing mocked up the 350 and the SM465 with a Np 208 transfer case but one of my buddies ended up owing me money and gave me his 1994 olds bravada VIN W the V6 that produces 195 Hp and like 240 Tq so i ripped every thing out and started from scratch once again. So i have started working on the swap yet again lol here is some pics of my soon to be awesome rig!!!

this is what it looked like before the stupid kid hacked it up!


this is the day after i got it


The seized 22r


after i picked it up


dropping the 350 in




i didn't want to but did


the trans and transfer case



its really lame how GM designed some things


i had it lined up perfectly


and the 350 is coming back out


and the stock interior before it got maimed


and the donor bravada


so far thats how far i am lots more to come

 

Awesomeness can't wait to see it done bro!!! The race is on lol!

 

Subscribed for sure.

Clean looking truck!! Looks exactly like my 85 that I had (My avatar).

 

I have some picture ill put up like tomorrow, clean hmmm I dunno about that the kid kinda hacked it up a little and the 22r seize from him I got it running but it was so messed up from the kid putting a wrong bearing in oh well hopfully I can get that 4.3L running and start my bobbed 4runner with suicide half doors in the rear and make a bikini top and some tube doors
