Talk me out of a manual transmission

No it's all V6 2nd Gens 05-15.

 

Ive only owned one AT in my life and hated it. Wife's SUV is AT but my personal vehicles have always been stick except for the one.

 

At 65 I’ve owned a crap load of vehicles 3 automatic vehicles! A major POS 79 Z28 a 85 Junk CJ and a Pre-runner that I absolutely loved but I couldn’t handle the Automatic. Looking back I guess I should have Transmission Swapped it!? I changed the tires and wheels, Icons, URD Y-pipe and TRD cat back. I then removed the shocks and exhaust and sold it for a $200 profit in less then 15 minutes from a $5 Craigslist ad. With in 45 minutes I had 4 buyers in the front of the garage. Oh boy was that fun, NOT! The Taco below

Sold the Pre-runner to buy the Stick below and standing at a dealer lot the head sales person would not let me go without selling him the one below and this is what he did with it!

Now I’m picking up my aluminum 5.3 L33 LS swapped w/ a twin disc between the engine & Tremec TKX. Purchased my flight for the 29th to drive it back to AZ. Andy the gentleman The F**king Hack who installed won’t send me any updated pictures he said he’s changed some stuff around and wants to surprise me. So this is the only photo I have and this is before he started wiring. Autos SUCK!!

 

looks like its supposed to be in there! and looks like it sits lower then the 4.0 could even use like a TRD style airbox with the right piping... great now I want to 6.0 swap the tacoma

 

Thanks!! We worked with a company to make motor mounts for LS Swaps.

And here’s what’s really funny. The front end looks like it sets higher than before.
The iron block 2TR with the Magnuson Supercharger might have weighed more. This is how it entered Andy’s garage.
