He should start taking some better pictures... WTF is with the thumbnails? I couldn't even see anything other than muble jumbo. Great work, but no props on the lack of details.

Sorry about the pics. We can't release the spec yet. Because the motor is not running right now. But believe me, there are some good and secret things that we have done to our 3vzfe. Nothing u can buy off the shelf.
wow, my respect to U, as a 3vzfe owner ii solute U! lol damn makes me want to rob a bank so i can put a turbo on mine but too expensive, im just starting to save some money, about how much r u guys gonna spend in total???thanks
As I recall the truck engine is the 3VZ-E. I never really looked into the differances between that and the 3VZ-FE.
I think it would be impossible for it to be a 3z-fe, since V is noting what the Block generation is. "7M-GE, 5M-GE"
"3VZ-FE, 1MZ-FE" Since they changed the block in 94 that would make it the 1st engine in that series.(1MZ-FE) 3VZ would denote the 3 generation of that motor with the "V" block.
Engine possibility could be a 3VZ-F since Toyota starting in the 70s identify their engines based on head type (F being economy, G being Sport). The E just means it is a fuel-injected engine, without it, it is carburated engine.

From the first day, I found your project to be very interesting. In a way, I want to see a built 3VZ and see how it turns out. It is far better than seeing the same old stuff like people getting new wheels, or asking for a supercharger kit.
Well, you can still take pictures of your setup without showing the key components. But as for the turbo layout (a big key to the setup), you already gave that away by the tiny pics regardless.
You can take pictures of block, head, overall engine, turbo components and yet still be able hide away all the machine work (the secret sauce), turbo manifolds, intake manifold (if custom), turbo routing, engine components (brand), fluid connections, etc...
The only thing that I won't know is the parts you are running (pistons/rods), the machine work involved, the specs on the port work, and your fuel/ign/EMS. But those parts are very flexible and have a variety of options available. Honestly, unless you have a specially designed turbo manifold, a revolutionary intake manifold, a special chamber design, etc... There isn't much that needs hiding. If you look at my 1MZ build-up progress, there is absolutely nothing that can be bought off the shelf anyways. If nothing can be purchased off the shelf, then I don't find a purpose of hiding it since nobody can get it anyways! ROFL...
I am assuming that your webpage was made to serve as a teaser and to grab attention for your project; but you will definitely need much nicer pictures and pics of the overall car and basic components to do the job. If you can't allow a wee bit of info at all, then I suggest you to keep the entire project fully confidential. Then at once, let it out when the project is fully successful.
Do it just like me when I turbocharged my 1MZ.. Nobody even saw it coming until the day of completion
