The truck is in the works still,I put a 2002 chevy blazer 4.3 engine in and upgraded the exhaust to true dual. I've also installed a K/N intake, as well as putting wider tires both in the front and the rear, the tires in the front are 245/50/16 and the ones in the rear are 255/50/16. I took the truck to the track before I did the swap and it ran a 20sec. quarter mile, then I took it out again and she ran a 16.5sec. quarter mile. I haven't taken the truck out on the track with the K/N but I will after I install the posy.I have the Auborn posy installed now and the truck has a nice increase in hp and torq. My accelleration is so much better, but before I can take it out on the track I have to recalibrate the computer so that the govoner will work properly or not at all because before the posi it would cut in a few feet before the finish line, but just from my test driving I think it will cut in sooner. I've still got a lot of work to do to the truck, cause alot of things have been going wrong since the swap but I'll deal with it. My only plans for the truck now are to finish getting the truck running smoothly. ok I've taken it to the track with the posi and power programer, I think it still needs some work, but we ran it and it did 16 flat. I'm going to shave the doors and tailgate handle. Looking into making a custom grill, as well as a new paint job, new rims, and much more, to have an idea of my plans go to page two for pictures of my wish list. I will post before and after pictures once I am completely finished with this swap. If you have any questions, comments, or ideas for my ride sign my guestbook, or email me at jamesbmartiniii@aol.com

Alot of people ask me about the exhaust but I had about five shops quote me all in the $300 range, deep discount mufflers, rainbow mufflers, ice cold air, if you have any out there they will do it. I wound up doing mine myself it was a lot of fun all you need is a welder and a knematic pipe bender, I'll send you a pic of the undercarriage if you want to see how I laid the lines.

hey bro, thanks for the comments on my ride. i'll tell you from experience...dont waste money on engine mods for your 2.2, its a waste of time becuase no matter how much cash you put into it it will hardly ever be any faster than it is stock, a stock yota 22R can still take it even after a few grand worth of engine mods. keep in touch, and good luck with it. later bro
