For the most part, I am finally done with an LQ9 motor swap into my 92 FJ80. The motor is basically an LS2 for the truck (different intake, and iron block). Other than that, very similar. ...roughly 350 HP and 380 Ft. Lb. of torque.
All in all, I am super happy with the swap. Although it turned into more than I wanted to spend and took months longer, it was definitely worth it. The exhaust note alone is worth every penny...but I am a bowtie guy at heart.
Here is a short video of some revs, drive shots, etc...sorry for the editing. A few picutes below as well.
