Picked up a 91 FJ80 last night with a broken motor. Turns out the crankshaft broke between #1 and #2.
I decided to drop in the 2UZFE VVTi v8 motor with stock auto transmission.
Here is my progress
I project 2 months to completion since my time out in the garage is limited
Day 1: - pull motor
Lets just say, the 3F motor is one of the harder engines to pull. I would hate to put this heavy hunk of iron back in. It would have made things a bit easier if Toyota would have made a two piece fan shroud! Took me about 3 1/2 hours to get the thing out of there, and by my standard, that was way too long. I did spend a bit of timing removing components I won't be needing anymore.
