2009 LS460 Engine swap??
I have a 2009 LEXUS LS460 RWD and I was wondering if anyone knows what the best engine swap would be for it. If so, what’s a price range and what info I need for it and if anyone has done it. I heard the is F engine but haven’t head of the GS F engine. I straight piped mine and it sounds great but not loud enough at all or fast. And no I don’t want to get a new car.

I know a korean guy who swapped 3rd-gen GS460 with an ISF engine. Yet there is a russian guy with a 3IS swapped with a RCF engine . Question is how much are you willing to spend?

Check out Monkey Wrench Racing outta MI.
They make stuff for LS460.
Camshafts,a MID Sleeve kit, I think even a stroker kit. Maybe the stroker was for the 3UR.
None of it looked cheap,and I'm not sure if a tune was included.
Even trying to turn 1UR into a 2UR with factory parts, sounds expensive.(Though I would have loved to have tried.)
