If you need a custom hood I know a guy in BC that you can talk to, he's pretty good but usually backordered so be prepaired to deal with wait times and his attitude. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" />

Same deal as my truck.

I have seen a 3.4 in an '82, done by Irbis Offroad in Colorado. Really the same as a later truck.

The hood space can be made up by a 1" body lift and slight hood trimming, plus a Suby hood scoop. Mine really did not require any trimming nor the scoop, just the 1" BL, but what the hey.

The Front Range Off Road Fab crossmember added to the simplicity of doing this. You will need to fab, or buy custom, the motor mounts. Mike R&Rd the motor maybe 6 times to get it perfect. That was without the BL, which would make things infinitely easier.


was the body lift for tranny tunnel clearance ? I really dont want to do ANY kind of body lift .

I can handle the crossmember , and motor mounts , I'll just be building my own ..
wiring is the only issue .. but I guess I can muddle threw that as well .

I did a swap on my 92 22r truck. I know it not a first gen, but at least this is a 22r to 5vz swap:


Thanks ..
