  1. Nice wheels. I didn't think that Ford rims would fit on a Toyota! Anyway, if you can find me a GN engine with a turbo of course I will gladly buy it and swap it in. In the meantime I have an 1987 Olds Cutlass 3.8 litre V6 that I am going to rebuild to about 400 horsepower this winter and then swap in.
  2. Yes, it is a super fun little pop-up motor home. I have had it for over 20 years. I will post some pictures in the next day or two. I have the front grill off to install some fog lights and day running lights. I will take a picture of the self-made motor mounts as well. I forgot to note that the fan from the V6 engine does not fit. I purchased a 17" vinyl racing fan from the US with a 1/2" spacer so the fan would not hit the engine. I also put a larger radiator in from an Isuzu truck. I had to install different radiator mounts as well, I think from a Toyota Camry. I also changed the tires. The front aluminum rims are from an Olds Cutlass I think and the rear aluminum rims from an Ford sedan I think.
  3. Hi everyone, great forum. I have a 1975 Toyota Chinook with a swapped in Buick 3.8 litre (231 c.i.) V6 and GM 5 speed manual transmission with headers. Lots of power and torque. I can go up the steep mountain grades in British Columbia in 5th gear and not lose any speed. The headers had to be cut and welded a bit to fit. The motor mounts were custom made. The drive shaft was shortened and balanced.
