2000izusu has a good thought here. Thinking along with him, I would also test the engine coolant temperature sensor (Toyota calls it an ECT sensor) and replace the thermostat. If either of these 2 items are out of spec, they can cause the engine to run richer and eventually ruin the cat.
Good luck with the new engine.
