I know it's not really spring, but I was just curious how the truck's doing these days!

Sweet, has their been any improvements on the trans, is it auto or manual.
Im not familiar with the codes that the Toyota engines go by, is the 5VZ engine the 3.4L V6 from the 3rd Gen cause I read it was pulled apart and all the internals where replaced with better peaces, thats the block but what about the heads are they rebuilt, but then someone posted it was a straight 6 from a supra.
Other things like is it 2wd or 4wd and if 4wd did you strenghten the transfercase and has the driveshaft been made stronger so on hard take off it does not break, does your truck have traction control or can you break the wheels loose.
Very cool, I know if that was mine I would really shock the crap out of some people with nice cars, you know the ones that got fast cars and know it, until
Whats the gas mileage, bet your gonna visit the gas station for premium everyday

I am always a little more careful in 4x4 though, as I am not shure how stong the toyota t-case housing is. Breaking wheels loose was a breeze, even 38" 15.50 swampers.
Gas mileage was an improvement. I used to get 9 mpg with the 3VZ, but after the swap I got 16. I have done other 7MGTE swaps that have got as high as 24 on the highway with 36" tires. Premium fuel is a must.
