hey all, ive just sold the rb runing gear out of my corona, and am now planing to put some form of v8 in it, my question is what would be the best 8 to use? i dont need it to be silly fast, just sound like a v8 should, be good for cruising and towing and be reliable enough to not contstantly break down, excuse the novel and any advice greatly appreciated, wanting to spend no more than $2000 on the motor and box so gbox recommendations would be great too as i want it to be auto, any suggestions are much appreciated

comes with the engine loom but has been chopped up for a 1uz so i'd say its not complete,still useable if spliced into his current loom maybe?
-
as for the bits you need seedy he has a complete water pump, and the ecu, he said that any toyota map sensor with the same plug will work as thats what he did, but doesnt have one, and has no tensioner, and said if u wanted pump and ecu to make an offer as he doesnt know what there worth, apologies for the novel haha and k trips motor has sold but he has alternator, power steering pump etc
-
he sold it already i think, will enquire now and let u know
