Recently acquired a '92 SC400 engine/trans/harness/sensors/fuel tank etc... This was picked up with the intentions of putting in my rockcrawler... Which currently has a 3zve.

The trans needs a rebuild, which is going to slow down this project enough. The engine also needs some freshening up. Appears it had been leaking oil for a while and has high miles. My plans were to seal it up and worry about maintenance items after the swap is completed.


In the interest of time, I started looking for a lower mileage motor. JDMs are readily available and priced fairly. Does anyone know if the fuel rail and injectors are the same as our market? I've read there is a difference between LS and SC injectors. But would a soarer and a sc400 of the same vintage be any different? I realize that JDM motors should be torn down anyways. That will most likely happen once the conversion is operational.

IN most cases, the JDM are usually different like the injectors for the USDM version compared to the JDM version of the 1JZ and the 2JZ.. They also have bigger injectors, and turbos, etc. I would contact the vendor and ask them directly or check out www.lextreme.com or PM Scoutturnot on here.. He is the man!!!
