? about 3sgte

I know this question has been asked before but I need to know if the 3sgte will go on the 3vzfe and what kind of mods i need to do to put it in. I'm planning on doing an engine rebuild soon and also swapping in a manual tranny. So i figured as long as i have everything apart might as well save up longer and put in the 3sgte. If there are any cheaper ways to do this please le me know.

swapping a 3S-GTE into a 3rd Gen V6 Camry is twice as hard as swapping it in a 4cylinder 3rd Gen ...

what do you plan to do? full out swap? cuz you cant put a 3sgte "on the 3vzfe". im not sure of a v6 front wheel drive engine that will drop in place of your v6. how about a rwd 2jz-ge Inline6 if youre gonna be doing awkward swaps. :-D

this is very do-a-ble... except it requires deep deep deep pockets...
this is something I want to move onto after the 5S-GTE hybrid...

Thanks for the input guys. I had a feeling the 3sgte was going to be a bitch to put in the 3vsfe. Just like all of us I would like to do an all out engine swap but money is a problem. The guy that I go through to do alot of the work on my car said that if i was really going to throw some money out there he would sponsor me and try and match the amount. I can only hope so. I think takes the 3sgte out of the picture but my mind still running and i'm definately open to any suggestions. Thanks again.
Dan
