Very nice! That will be just like having a brand new (1985) 4Runner when it's up and running.
Actually, that will be much better than a brand-new 1985 4Runner!
That is a nice looking engine.

A little more together. All that intake stuff will need to come off to lace in the wire harness. I'm just trying to get stuff out of tote boxes, and off the shelves.

still planning on the supercharger?

Yep. Another reason not to bolt that junk down tight.
What will a supercharger do for your horsepower and torque numbers? You will have more power than you know what to do with.

One can never have enough power.
Stock power on my 22re is 112hp, and 140lb-ft.
Stock power on the 3RZ is 150hp and 177lb-ft.
The low boost SC is supposed to take that up to around 195hp. This puts the power in the 3.4L V6 range.
That should be just about perfect in that truck.

I think I will be very happy with 195hp. Robbie did balance the engine, so I suspect it might do a little better.
I love my 3rz and it has plenty of power for most of my needs, however, on my recent trip to Colorado with my wife and all of our gear, I was wanting more on those steep high elevation grades along the 70. At the risk of a clone of Pappys 4runner, and after I see if he's happy with it, I may add a supercharger as well.

It's exactly those Rocky Mountain passes that have me looking at the SC. It doesn't take much to slow down my truck right now. Even 3% grades are a challenge when I'm fully loaded. Make it 9% and the truck is a slug.

That's pretty!
It’s time to get that puppy in your truck!
Whoa! Any estimates on the likely hp/torque figures?

LCE says 195.

The conversion wiring is much more intimidating that the 2FE. Everybody says it's easy. I'm not feeling the joy. I have the FSM for my 1985, and the 1998 4R, but the 1998 doesn't have a single wiring diagram. Found some stuff online, and Ryan sent me a few. Said f* it, and ordered the factory Electrical Wiring Diagram manual. I like paper. Now I just need the Post Office to realize that New Mexico is a state, and not send it to Mexico. It's been bouncing around OH for 4 days.

Well, I think I have the wiring figured out. I need to double check my work, and cross reference with what others have done. Wires have been left long and can be shorted later. The plan is to make sure this works before I adjust the wires and loom the harness.

I have downloaded the EWD and the FSM for '96-'02. I shared it with you from Google Drive. Check your email. I just realized it's prolly too late anyway but you have a soft copy. I tend to save them in my tablet for access during a wheeling trip or something. I don't like carrying thick books if possible.
