Here you go, a v6 to v6 swap. Skunk works between me and ASG14. Swap took about 100 man hours. It was a 3v with a blown head and knock to a lively 1m. Here are a few pics of the swap.
E-brake Swap-ASG14
An yes I did it all. Only had some help rolling the sub-frames.

Worked for Last 3 weeks at a pace of 3 Hours a night unless it was raining. On days off, I tried to work all day.
Donner was an 1994 XLE V6. 196,XXX on the clock. Engine has to have been a take out form another car. There was little to no build up in the heads. There was a brand new Timing Belt, Water Pump, O2 Sensors, Dog Bone, Front Mount. Trans fluid was new and full. Engine oil was clean and not black.
My camry was 1993 LE V6. 180,XXX on the clock. Had damage to front bumper, Hood, RT fender, Head Lights, Corners, Rebar and Arms. The motor had been rebuilt, but it did not save it from a bad rebuild.
The harness form the 94 form Firewall forward was moved to the 93. The AC system is being changed. The dash was moved form the 94 to the 93, pretty straight froward. Not too much different in the bodies. Washer tank was rewired to work with 94 harness.
The heat and air was changed from the XLE push button to an LE lever. A rewire is able to be done. So this can be done. I have the proof now. Blew a few fuses. Haha had the back lights dimming with the fan switch.
Plans to boost, then to AWD.

By AWD, does that mean you're gonna rebuild the 3VZ and put the rolling subframe in the trunk? lol You could go for all wheel steer too with this option!
Good job, looks like fun!
