Looking into fitting toyota engine into VH Commodore.

Allo,
I've sort of inherited my grandfathers old '82 VH Commodore and its in quite good condition body wise, only a little bit of surface rust in the c-pillar and some in the boot opening. 80,000 km on the clock on the original 6 cylinder engine. Only problem I'm having is.. its a Holden engine, not a Toyota 
Just wondering on opinions or ideas of swapping over to a 4 cylinder Toyota n/a powerplant of sorts. I really have no idea at this moment, just dont really like the thought of selling the car outright as it still holds sentimental value to me.
Has anyone on the forums done something similar and if so, was it easily swapped in? I'm assuming a few things would have to be custom made/fitted starting with engine mounts and mating up a suitable gearbox etc.. but being n/a still I cant see too many issues.
Any ideas would be appreciated, especially the scary prices and the likes.
Thanks,
|
