If you're still looking for a mechanic in the Phoenix area, try Eric out. He built a pretty sick 1st gen with a supercharged 3.4 v6... clean inside n out. He has a shop up in North Phoenix

I have a friend who has a shop in Mesa and he specializes in Toyota. He is the only one I'll let touch my 89 4Runner. He and I are planning a 1JZ swap for my truck. He has done 100% of the work that my 3.0 has ever needed, and at 25 years old with 220k miles it sometimes needs a helping hand to keep going. He also builds Toyota truck rock crawlers Supra drag cars.

Just wanted to bump this and see if there were any other shops doing swaps in the Phoenix area. I'm going to try and contact the two guys mentioned here
