TACUNDRA - 5.7L 3URFE swapped 2nd gen project

Discussion in '2nd Gen. Tacomas (2005-2015)' started by MikieSwartz, Jan 13, 2019.

?

Will I end up with a functional 5.7L Tacoma?

  1. Yes. I watched you're video and I have faith in you.

    37.8%
  2. Probably. I mean, you already have a whole Tundra for parts.

    41.1%
  3. Maybe. If you're a Toyota tech and have an engineering degree.

    14.3%
  4. Probably not. If it was possible, other guys would already have it done.

    7.6%
  5. No. You're blowing smoke or you're delusional.

    7.1%

    Swap is in full swing now guys! I'm having trouble keeping up with videos! Seriously have 2 or 3 more episodes to edit, but I'd rather be in the garage cutting this truck up!

    I haven't watched any of the videos. Is this a pretty easy drop-in swap?


    LOL! Kidding! Videos are awesome (Dead Milkmen audio clips, too!). Keep up the good work. :benchpress::sawzall::welder:

    I assume that's a custom piece.
    Where'd you get it? I'm going to be looking for a couple custom badges for my v8 ranger thunderbolt swap next year
