There is a guy in San Diego his name is John.
He owns a shop called San Diego Trux, he specializes in Toyotas. :boxed:

Rebulid it? Mine lasted 325K miles, and by that time there wasn't anything left attached to it that you could call a truck anymore LOL. Best vehichle I've ever owned though. Salt sucks :)
Petersons 4 wheel & Off Road did a few Toyota engine articles in the last couple years. They used some CA based shops and vendors too. Don't remember the details, but it might be worth looking up some back issues.

thanks guys for your info I bought the thing cheap to d*ck around with and drive to work once in a while. The truck runs great 80mph all the way home from havasu just thought I'd freshen it up.

Git yerself an A-dapter kit frum PAW and put a Small Block Chevy with a Turbo 400 in it. That's what I'd do....... :rollside:
