    Hi guys my names Zach I own a 1971 Toyota hilux 2door 2wd. When I got this truck it had a 20r with 4spd side shifter. Soon after I ripped that out and threw a 22/20r hybrid motor with rv cam rave header Weber (32/36) I believe on it. Its strait piped tight behind cab sounds nasty when really on er.the motor swap came with a 5spd and stage 2 shift kit. Custom drivegaft, its got five panel race mirror,fender mount side mirrors, custom paint,modified seat to make room for shifter, completly rewired from ground up(because crappy wiring from previous owner caught my dash and engine bay on fire) also reason started the build. I have so much I want to do to this truck once I get another car to drive ill be tearing down to frame getting all new suspension I'm thinking bout using 86 Toyota supra for parts when I do this frame up build and I'm talking front and rear suspension the whole irs setup, wanting 5spd transint it and oh the 7mge that I plan on turbocharging. How does that sound guys.
