I want to put a 3vzfe in my 92 xle. It has a 5sfe now. How hard would this be? Do I have to swap the tranny too? Its an automatic. what about making it a manual? Any help is appreciated.

if your serious i can give more info but a parts car would be very helpful. if not you need the subframe and everything attached to it also the engine harness and fuse block.

I'm positive you've done it more than once 2wickedtoyz lol.
I remember I was asking you for info on it, and then I messed the transmission.
To the OP, if you're serious, then 2wicked is your man

I think you may take a lot of trouble to swap it. Good luck.

im not really sure how i did that. one of the mechanics was saying the output shaft bearings had finally had it.

1mz or 3vz swap? if it was a 1mz were you tring to to do a 5spd? if so you needed the 3vz jack shaft to make it work.
