In the 40, you need to pull the tranny+tcase with the engine if that's what you're asking?
3FE in a fj40. What will be better?

You mean stab the thing whilst in the truck? I'm not sure how it's reasonably done. It's much quicker to take the whole triplet out... You don't have any tranny/tcase supports anyway 
i figed that o well, i hope this weekend ill have it out
well i got the head off and DAM it was burning oil, and i found a nice groove the 1st cylinder which turns out the a CRACK, so now im in need of a 2f block.
I too am jumping on the 2FE bandwagon, in my FJ40. I acquired almost everything recently minus ECU and o2 sensors/wiring for less than $200 (including the head). After looknig at the restrictive MAF, and need to have 2 O2 sensors, I am figuring it may be easier to go with the Megasquirt EFI wiring layout. It will eliminate the factory (expensive to replace) MAF, allow for cheap and single O2 sensor. De-smogging shouldn't effect the operation either. To boot it can be tweaked with a laptop computer. Drawback is that it probably isn't C.A.R.B. legal. This makes it for most a trail only option, but having my rig registered in Missisippi I should be okay. There are other systems for EFI conversions on the market, but they hover around the $1000 range. Megasquirt is less than $300.
Has anyone had the injectors professionally cleaned prior to running theirs (either straight 3FE or 2FE swap)? Would it be beneficial to do?

Lets get it on... I need some motivation to start my swap... I now have TWO different injections systems ready to install on my Cruiser (complete 3FE & complete TBI system), neither of which I have been too motivated to do...

Yeah, and here's a place to have it done, R C Engineering http://www.rceng.com/. Some have also had the throttle body bored and claim an improvement. I think RC Engineering can also do the TB if you want. Also with the injectors, they're not only cleaned but flow tested and balanced and you'll recieve a data sheet on their flow rates.

I've got mine sitting on a palet in the warehouse ready to go in. I want to help JP get his in and then do mine so I know what the hell I'm doing.

Nah, I like the idea of a 2F-E

Nope, I may sell the entire setup (rebuilt TBI unit, harness, Smythe adapter, all new sensors, JTR speed sensor, Caddy air filter)... But that is to be determined

I like the Idea of 2F-TE even better.
