Engine Label
Hello I have a SC430 with 268,00 kms, I am intending to swap the motor with one of a Soarer 2002 with 85,000 kms.
I found the engine levels, in the SC430 it says 3UZ-Z88 and in the soarer it says 3UZ-Z22 other than that the engines and transmissions look very similar. Does anyone know that is the meaning of the suffix?
Thank you,

my 2002 looks a little different than my 2007.
the vacuum ports are in different locations on the intake.

May I ask, what is the reason for the swap other than the millage diff? the original engine is 268k km (about 167k miles) so it's not so bad considering these engines last 2-3 times longer if properly care for.

The only reason is the mileage I have concerns about the transmission. I don't have any apparent problems yet but I got the drive-train available. I
