That's a pretty heavy motor for the front of your runner. 3.4L 4 cylinder.  Great engine.  Will last a long while if properly maintained. Maybe gutless in a 5000lb 60 series, but works just fine in 40 series.  Turbo gives it some good punch but not necessary- it really depends on what you expect.  Don't expect to be going 70mph up a hill in the passes.  Recommend replacing the head right off with a hi-nickel content head.  Most come from POs cracked because temps got up too high.
