Most likely you have a G52 or W56 gearbox. They both bolt to a 3L bellhousing. If you have the R151F bolted to the 3L - then it's using the turbo 2L-T style bellhousing....

If you have a R151F - the 1KZ-T and 1KZ-TE will bolt to it, using the 1KZ's bellhousing. A G52 and/or W56 will most likely not survive behind the 1KZ....

Look at www.marlincrawler.com and you'll find pics that show the differences in the gearboxes. If you don't have a R151F or R150F, grab one attached to the 1KZ....

My 2 cents
