yer lexus is way to go
as long as u understand the costs and time involved

im hoping to put one in my hilux in afew months

what are yr plans
are u goin to pay someone to do most of the work

are you goin to run an auto or a manual gbox

you have to decide these things soon

if u go auto from lexus then its easier

if u go manual then u need belhousing and u might want to find a lexus v8 not a crown v8
as the lexus v8 with a manual i think is less hassles with the electricals not having an auto gbox

if u use the lexus v8 auto then u need special tailshaft as they have big rubber thingy bolted to back of gbox where orig tailshaft goes like a damper

if u go crown v8 then u have ti wire the auto ecu up aswell
so u need a half cut

if u get a crown v8 and go manual then the ecu will prob be in limp mode due to the auto not being there

there are afew small issues with these engines
most are easily fixable
