Heya, nice to see someone local here. No significant updates really. I have the motor sitting under the hood, but not positioned. I've been busy, and have more than one project...I'm actually rebuilding my mkII supra's engine right now. I got the 1UZ from Phoenix Auto Parts, a salvage yard in...

This thread, and your work are very inspiring. The attention to detail you've shown is impressive. Are you still planning on a one-off custom adaptor for the bellhousing? Using the auto bell? Or? I have an identical dilemma, r150f w/chain t-case, and a w56 w/gear, want to combine...

Hmm. I've been slacking off for a few months, but I did get a few pics of the motor after I picked it up from Long Island. At this point I'm still just stalling on the 1UZ -> R150f bellhousing solution. I can't justify the Castlemain/Dellow housing, which I knew getting into this project...

That sounds great. I'm currently working on a deal for a 94 LS 400 1UZ. I should have it in my shop by this weekend. The motor mounts I'm just going to fab up myself, along with a bed cage that will also mount my radiator (in prerunner fashion). Definitely let me know if you'd like me to test...

... I'd wondered why the Pirate4x4 thread was so dead, SuperRunner...you're over here! I have two complete candidates for drive-lines, an (r150f + chain t-case) and a (w58 + gear t-case). My 89 ext. cab project has been stalled for months now, I've been so set on waiting for your bellhousing...
