Hi Guys , well finnaly my engine is a complete mess , so i need to check if a 1KZT engine will bolt up straight where previously existed a 3L , ive a 1993 Lux with previous 22R Engine ( before 3L) so im not pretty sure but i should have a G52-5 or a R151...
Someone with previous experiencies and any advice please?

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
