Engine Swap Question

Is it possible to fit a 87-91 Toyota Supra single turbo 7MGTE Engine in a ’95 Tacoma.
I know you need the motor mounts, ECU and probable the wiring harness, but I want to know if it will just fit in the engine compartment.
:feedback:

Well, first off is it a 95.5 Tacoma, or a 95 Toyota truck? Both were made that year. I know people put them into the trucks, but I do not know of anybody that has put one in a Tacoma.

Second, what motor are you replacing? The 7MGTE is known for blowing head gaskets left and right, and only makes about 230 HP. There are better options out there.

It's a 95.5 Tacoma with a 2.4L 4cyl with 142HP 230hp-142hp= 88hp I think thats prety good.
the only reson I thought of the 7MGTE is becouse I thought it was a smaller V6
than the last gen engine and still had a turbo, but if you say it blows head gaskets if you know of a beter one with out going insane on the price please let me know.

Also I am asking for my brother, if he had it his way he would try to shove a 350 chevy in their.

The 7Ms head gasket problems can be fixed with a metal head gasket, but that requires the block and head to be machined. That ups the budget a bit. Well, 2JZs are kind of pricy, as is the LS1. The 5VZFE which is the 3.4 V6 which comes in the Tacoma runs about $1500 or so used. The 1UZ, the 4L V8 in 400 series Lexus vehicles, isn't a bad option. You can do a 4.3 Chevy swap. They can be had for about $600. The list goes on and on.

One thing to consider, check your local emissions laws. Some states do not allow you to swap in a motor that is older than the model year of the truck.

Thanks for the info TcmaBoy my borther talked with the local speed shop and they said that they would put a 350 chavy with 300hp in the truck for $6500.......I think will keep looking for other options but thinks again.
