very nice :)

i put my 4.3L TBI in my brother's 2wd toyota! then he bought another 2wd toyota, and i got my engine back, with the frame and everything.

i used the stock toyota motor mounts, and a set of chevy motor mounts... i cut the chevy ones up and welded them to the toyota mount. easy and cheap :)

good luck with the build! ill be keeping my eye on this.

P.S. have fun with gauges (unless youre going aftermarket), we ended up swapping the entire chevy cluster into the truck, along with 90% of the chevy harness. we were on a tight deadline though, so the whole swap only took about 2 weeks haha
