value of 2.7, 164 hp 4-cylinder from new Tacoma

Call your local parts yards and Toyota dealer's parts departments and ask for prices on new and used engines. They'll tell you over the phone, and you'll get a good idea what it's worth in your area.

You could then sell the engine yourself for a higher price than the wholesale price a used parts handler can pay you. Remember, a parts dealer can't pay you what he charges for it, you'll do better if you can sell it to an end user, such as a body shop repairing a wrecked Tacoma.

I've only asked about converting a Tundra so far - I think these folks prefer the 3L toy diesel and a Nissan diesel (6?) from Japan. I haven't talked with them about the new taco body -- need to nail down the details.

Damn shame that Toy sells both D4D diesels and turbodiesels in many of their models (taco included) all over the world but we're stuck with these #$&(*&&^%^%$ gas guzzling engines in the US models. Superior vehicle with inferior running gear.....
