3sgte engine in car. now wont start! Options

[toyotacrazy]

I started my swap last night! Got the engine out and the 3sgte mounted onto the 5s-fe trans. within about 4 hours. The motor mount next to the timing cover had to be modified to fit correctly. Ive heard before its a direct fit for the 5s-fe motor mounts. Its not! Only one bolt lines up without modifications. I took the mount to the grinding wheel and managed to make it fit well. If anybody wants pics give me your e-mail and Ill send you some pics of the mount. Hope this will better prepare some of the future swappers! later-

It runs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got it up and running. The correct ecu did the trick! Just working out the bugs now.....It idles high until I pinch off the large hose on the drivers side of the intake manifold. Then it goes down to normal idle. I think that hose goes to the wastegate. I gotta get a better look at it. At least it runs. Thanks all!!!!!!!!!!!

So the ECU work out good for you im hoping?

Good luck man, i hope to see some numbers from your car soon!

Let me know if you need any other parts.
