I have an old 302 connected to a C4 and Orion that needs replaced. I have a Turbo City EFI so plumbed to and from both tanks. I would like to replace this engine with a new crate engine with current EFI technology. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

the ls based vortec motors have become the go to swaps, keeping an automatic in a fj40 may be difficult, the new ford coyote v8 is a good motor, but very few have been swapped and the width may be an issue.
you could get a low mile 5.3 takeout motor and trans reasonable, the biggest problem is going to be length,
The new vortec v6 2014+ (ls based direct injected) has 285hp and a 6speed auto, would be a shorter package and allow you to stay automatic, being that its ls based the aftermarket has harness and programing to allow you to customize to your application. I have been looking at this option of one of my 40's.
