Re: Possible 3RZ swap in the near future :)

Got off the phone with my dad a bit ago. He picked up the engine and parts today and then called me. It seems the shop did a swap and put in a new style 3RZ (This one has 4 intake ports as opposed to 8). They swapped in a new harness, ECM and and everything. So... the engine will be coming with all this.  :biggthumpup: Even the injectors, intake and exhaust manifold. I am not sure what else but will be going to take a look and taking some pictures tomorrow.

Now the bad news. I knew I had to do some assembly with the engine but I guess one of the cams is bad/broken and has to be replaced and also the timing chain. It seems it will take a a lot of work to get this thing back together. I was looking at gaskets sets, timing chain set, oil and water pumps and a cam and is $$$$. :crazy: I have to look, but if the parts are that much, it might be a better to find used engine.

Where can I get good engine parts (other than LCE) that will not kill me?

I will try and update this tomorrow afternoon with pics.

Boggerunner, I might not need as many parts as I thought but I know I will be needing some.
