QUOTE (Box @ Sep 21, 2012 - 1:45 PM)  Still when the main part of the swap(engine) is cheaper, that swap will be cheaper. You're missing the hidden costs. Doesn't the v6 swap require a fair bit of wiring harness work to work in our cars? Thats another 500 Dr Tweak dollars that you can add to the cost of the motor. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

I have an in house ASE Toyota Master Technician, so no not really.  Besides have to do harness work with the 3S-GTE as well. Even if you pay to have it done I don't think it was that much, obviously Smaay or Kurt could confirm the exact cost.
