Re: HELP, 3.8L v6 in my lux

was fine in the car befor it came out, if we pinch the fuel line befor the pumps to cut the fuel pressure it runs fine... but that isn't fixing the issue really.

350rwkw with stock gear ? Most lux's using this motor are lucky to see 200 rwhp. I think this conversion is worse than a 308/253 combo in a hilux having driven both, but would be ok in a sierra because of the weight and the torqueless nature of the toyota motor wouldnt really matter.

get a drop saw, cut the yoke. find some tube that will side over the spline, weld that to the cut yoke as a spacer. then find some steam pipe to slide over the yoke..... weld both ends
Is that what your after?
