    uhh...everything? lol
    you wouldnt happen to know anything about putting an ls1 in a tacoma would you? I am not doing it for awhile, until mine blows up, but i am trying to plan it out, I want to use my stock tranny. I was thinking about calling advance adapters and seeing if they would make some tacoma ls series motor mounts and a ls series bellhousing kit to adapt the r151f/r150. Any suggestions??

    sorry to hijack your thread, your swap is CLEAN. I hope mine will turn out like that. Nice job man!

    well are you gonna stick with an auto or swap to manual? if you stick with auto it shouldnt be that difficult. hardest parts were engine mounts, and splicing the wiring
