    Still researching for my engine swap and i'm kinda leaning towards the 7MGE because of the ease of fitment and wiring. Not to mention its still YOTA power. What I wanna know is how reliable is this swap. Will it work in a truck for a daily driver, and what kind of gas mileage does it get.

    Was just looking at a 7MGTE yesterday and it looks pretty tight.
    Was thinking about it but really dont wanna cut any.
    PLease let me know if its possible to do so without cutting.

    Good Luck!!
