Those engines will fit, but wont bolt straight in. Gearbox input shaft is different, engine mounts are different for starters.
Why do you need the extra power? Not being a smart arse, it is a legitimate question.

grab a wrecked 2H or 1HZ 75 and swap all the relevant bits over with which ever motor you want, 12HT or 1HZT
What garrett is on your 3B ?

yer thats a good idea,so i will probs need the gear box to go with?
its a gt28 not sure if its the 60 or wat though but its water and oil cooled.
do us no any other 4b with the same size diff as the bj which is lsd?
