4.7L Engine Swap

I was hoping to get a little more pep out of my Tacoma. Is it possible to swap in a 4.7l engine/transmission from a tundra into my Tacoma?

 

if your going to do that.... do a proper swap of at least the 4.6L v8 out of the newer tundra.... or the 5.7....

cus nothing is going to be just plug and play... and the 4.7L is freaking ancient

 

Bummer I was hoping it would be lol
Is my easiest option going to be to supercharge my 4.0?

 

yup. easiest and best option outside of a proper motor swap.

 

Easiest and most practical is to sell it and buy a full size with a V8

 

Agreed.

 

what does a supercharger setup cost installed at dealer on the 4.0? I could use my bosses account for discount on parts...thanks

 

About 1/2 what your truck is worth.

 

I'll keep it stock lol

 

Swap in the Mighty Mouse 2.7L 2TR and trans. Turbo. Easy 300-1600hp capable when built.

 

There I fixed it. Lol

 

Not true at all! The 4.7 can be had way cheaper than a supercharger and it uses the same transmission the auto v6 has so it bolts right up.

You have the space in the engine bay, just gotta sort out your motor mounts and some more details. If you do the work yourself way cheaper than a supercharger, better sound and power and no need for premium gas

 

Yes!

 

The 4.6 is also mated to the a750 tranny I believe. The 4.7 has been bulletproof over the years though, take a look at the million mile tundra. It was mated to an a750, even that transmission made it something like 750k before if needed work, I think he lost reverse. It doesn't say so in this article, but I saw or heard somewhere that he had the timing chains replaced by the dealer 3 times.
Million mile tundra

 

Superchargers run 5k
Do you really think you could swap the engine and tranny for under that? (I know that sounds sarcastic but I'm genuinely asking).

 

The idea is that you can use your existing tranny.

 

I thought the Tundra had a 6 speed? Second gen Tacoma uses a 5 speed.

 

The 4.7 used the a750, same as the Tacoma, FJ, and 4Runner. I'm pretty sure the 4.6 tundra also uses the a750.
Edit: the 4.6 is not mated to the a750

 

So if I can do the 4.7 I could do the 4.6?

 

4.6L is just as bulletproof as the 4.7 and it makes a shit ton more power. Also, no timing belt that needs changing etc.
