If that's an FJ or BJ60 WAGON with a 3B engine, stay well clear of it. While a soild & reliable machine, it is dangerously gutless... barely capable of 60mph, and utterly unable to overtake. Now, if it's a 13B or a six, that's a whole different kettle of fish. Why defile a Toyota by fitting a Chev lump into it?? If ya gotta V8 it, at least put a TOYOTA V8 in! -- Andrew Grebneff Dunedin New Zealand Fossil preparator <andrew.grebneff@stonebow.otago.ac.nz> Seashell, Macintosh, VW/Toyota van nut HUMANITY: THE ULTIMATE VON NEUMANN MACHINE
