I have a 1991 prado (LJ78) and am looking to replace my 2LTE.
I have a heavy rig modified for extreme off-roading and overlanding. This has blown up both my engine and transmission. From my research the 1KZ-TE with mechanical injection pump is the best and easiest swap. But I am also looking to swap the turbo with the CT20B. With this added power I am afraid it will be too much for the transmission (A343F) but the only kind of easy swap that is stronger is the R151F. But this means going from auto to manual which is a lot of work.
Does anyone have any suggestions on engine or transmission ideas for this rig?
