Gas motor swap

Hey guys I’m a new member here for some technical info, I got an 81 pickup not a 4Runner but still has the Toyota badge so it’s close enough. Looking to do a motor transplant, tdi seems common but I’m a mechanic and hate vw so that’s a no go, I’m leaning towards a 4.3L or id like to do an ecotec 2.4L anyone on here ever finished this swap?

I will say I scored a 2KD-FTV Hilux engine and as soon as I can start my own thread, do I have questions for you all!
Hi there. I'm a new member looking into the same thing you're discussing. I just wanted to ask how it went?
