Using motor, trans and transfercase from 2013 in a 2007?

Will he even need to swap the valve cover? Looks like removing the air injection valves,exhaust header, and associated plumbing, may be all that's needed. Not sure but I think the air injection valves mount to the valve cover, and if no openings are left , I would leave the existing valve cover on if I could. ???

 

But cleaner engine bay with tidier valve cover broski!

 

Ok ill ask him .

 

Thanks alot guys.please keep the tips and advise rolling in.anythimg helps

 

So... what happened to the 07 engine?

 

I ran this without oil for too long.it never overheated that i know of because i only drive a 15 minute commute.

 

Was it burning oil? Is it possible that the oil pump failed?

 

I really dont know what happend.but as an update i took my truck to a friend who is going to install the 2013 motor.ill post pics next weekend.is the oil pump failure a common problem?

 

Not common, but I’ve heard of it happening on the 1gr-fe a few times.

 

Are you installing a new clutch and release bearing assembly while you are in there ? Are you going to be machining the flywheel ?

 

-Use the wiring harness in the 2007.
-Remove Valves for the AIP and the exhaust header off the 2013 engine. (The thing you are pointing at..)
-Swap over exhaust header from 2007 engine to 'new' engine.
-OPTIONAL, swap over left side engine valve cover from 2007 engine to 2013 engine. The valve covers are slightly different. The cover on the 2013 engine has mounting points for the AIP valves.

ALSO:

- I would remove spark plugs and crank engine over. Probably should replace spark plugs while you're in there.
- Replace valve cover gaskets while 'new' engine is not in truck..
- Change oil before starting 'new' engine.

 

Sorry for being so late to respond., bit my truck is up and running just fine.the thimg i was pointing at on the 2013 motor was removed, and the additional plumbing going into the blck was cut off and welded shut.used the 2007 wiring harness and everything seems to be running just fine.thanks for all the advice and help guys.

 

Glad to hear!

 

So then you should have a bunch of engine parts for sale, yes? Like valve covers amd what not?
