Pube Regular Location: Camden Registered: May 2002	Re: Kyle's RA23 (preview) Tue, 29 March 2005 06:55 Today i started phoning around the wreckers to price an engine. Im looking for the early carmy engine which is a 2VZ-FE which is a 2.5L V6. I want to get the 2.5L so i can run either super/turbo. However i spoke to about 10 wreckers and i only had luck with 1 place but the engine was in storage in a warehouse. I did however find a 4 runner V6 bellhousing from a 4X4 wrecker. Even the the 4 runner V6's seem to be hard to find as well, unless you want to spend big bucks on a newer wreck. I got the bellhousing for $180 which was ok i guess. Then i went searching for camry engines again to see if the bellhousing will even fit. I found one wrecker that had a few V6's but still had gearboxes on them so it was hard to tell. I tried matching the bellhousing to a FWD gearbox to see if it had the same mounting holes but it wasnt even close. But im not sure if the blokes at the wreckers were sure it was a V6 FWD gearbox to start with. It seems like i was going around in circles. On the way home i tried a local smaller wrecker and they had a 3VZ-FE witout a gearbox attached. I tried the 4 runner bellhousing and it fits!!!! all the bolt holes line up but both the engine and the bellhousing have a dowl in the same position so one has to be removed. But i was so excited that i forgot to check the starter motor. Well anyway a bit of progress on a V6 RWD conversion. Next i have to check out if the R154 wull fit on the other end.
