This PowerSurge pump is really cool and I would go with this if I can't make some parts work together from the Sequoia donor. On my FJ (3FE) a couple of rods broke in cylinders 5 and 6 and as a result, part of the cam blew out the side of the block. Never saw anything like it so that was grounds for the V8 swap.VERY interested to hear about / watch your build. I really want this to be the next improvement I make to my '96 FJZ80! I'm pretty much done with making repairs to the 1FZ. If it ever blows a HG, it's just gonna sit until the 2UZ goes in.
That being said, I was noticing your comments about the fuel pump, lines, etc., and I wondered if a product I just used on my Holley Sniper conversion on my FJ60 might also work in this application? It's a really simple idea, and it made the Sniper-to-fuel tank connections REALLY simple. Let me know what you think..........
