AMC engines are also similar with the exception of their weird intake/exhaust manifolds. The point is that any of these engines could have been developed as direct competition to the long successful GM engines. It's a well known fact that Ford and Chrysler developed small block V-8's in the 60's to compete with the 283/327 Chevy's. It's your truck, put anything in that you want. Personally if I was going to do that much work I would install a small block Chevy. There are still some Toyota purists out there and I have worked on their FJ40's as well as some with 350's in them. Individualism is what keeps the tuck hobby alive.
