Thanks and also i wanted to know what kind of transfer case is on it because i know its not a stock toyota one because of the shift pattern

Post a pick of the transfer, I'm guessing it's a 205.

Probably a 4.3. The only other Chevy V6 I can think of is the 2.8, but that really isn't worth going to all the trouble to swap it in.

I'm pretty sure the buick V6 will have the distribitor up front and the chev in the rear. At least this what I've heard, I'm far from a being a Chevy guy.

yes you are right the 4.3 has the distributer in the rear and so does this engine so now I guess its an old 4.3

Oh yeah, the 231 is also used in Toyota's ;D |
