V6 swap info Options

[doory100]

My 1995 celica standard 2.2l is toast the bottom end is gone. I must have starved the engine of gas and blew it. With that said I need to put a new engine in and I am thinking a 3sgte or a beams is out of my price range. I can get a used motor from the pull it yourself yard for $200. so I was thinking a V6 would be best since I want it to be faster and have more HP. My question is what V6 should I use? And What should I take with it ie. tranny, axles, ecu ect.?
My car has a ODB1 if that makes a difference.
lets say I can get any V6 1MZ ect. possable, what car is the best and what year should I look for. there is a Lexus with a Duel TB at the junk yard...

Thanks for your input

dude, all your questions have been answered in my threads.

but engine wise, yes you can use a 2002 Solara 1MZ and use a 97 ECU. in my case, im using a 2005 Sienna 3MZ with a 97 ECU. I dont have VVT support, but im really not missing it.

you have a few other options with fuel, you can find a 94 engine that uses a return style fuel system line the celica. then use 97 electronics. or you can convert the rails to return like I did on my setup at first. or, you can convert to returnless like I did for the ST swap and I eventually did in my car so i can pass SMOG.
