5VZFE engine question?

[dmercado]

What is the difference from these 5VZFE engines (pre-99, post 99)

6 cyl (5VZFE eng, VIN N, 5th digit), Fed, thru 1/99

6 cyl (5VZFE eng, VIN N, 5th digit), Fed, from 2/99

I have a 1999 SR5 4-Runner and I need to replace the engine. Will a 5VZFE engine thru 1/99 work?
