nice.
the late 90's 4.7 in the 100 series shares the same auto as the 80 series right? so the 4.7 is a bolt on then and the rest of the drivetrain stays untouched?
The 4.7 will not bolt up to the 80 series tranny. You have to use the 100 series tranny to bolt up to the 80 tcase. The wiring is the tricky part.
The tansmissions are not the same. They are 343s but the mounting is different.
Primarily bell housing.
Nice work!
We just supercharged one of these engines in a 06 100, and adding intercooler to it next week.
Without intercooler it made just over twice the torque for the first 1000 rpm, running 5 psi, exhaust, jet hot coated headers, enlarged factory cat flanges, and tunable device piggy backed.
Intercooler should see it go to 250 rw hp, and 7 psi, as well as more torque.
Economy has improved by aprox 1.5-2 lt per 100km so far also.
Makes for a very nice off road unit, with all the extra torque down low.

Its just the cost that become the hurdle. That thing is like 10k complete. If the 1FZ was adequate, the 2UZ should be awesome.

I wanted the 5 sp, but could not find a donor that new.
Got the 1Fz, tranny and tcase pulled today. The 2UZ is waiting on a torque converter rebuild and then will be put back between the frame rails. Once is where I want it, Joe will fab up some mounts and we are on the down hill side. Pics tomorrow.
