    LOL, those unlimited motors are worth as much as his truck for a race capable one.

    Not a chance on the support side. Install would be custom, so no help there. Maintenance diagnostic support of a custom built and tweaked LS over an OEM and very ubiquitous 1GR motor? Also no. Maybe for parts like a Holley EFI system, but as a package, still no.

    But if you got 11Gs in your pocket...

    Lol I just thought maybe if it’s 1k more to do a 4.7 or something then why not but I just had no clue how much it would be, thus why I asked.

    My parents have an 05 v8 4Runner. That thing feels way faster than my Tacoma pretty much in all situations.

    The crazy part is an LS1 swap gives you 350 hp and 25 mpg. Where did yota go wrong with fuel efficiency?
