@@JaydebJagmohan Yes, tuning is required with any camshaft that is not a stock grind. It will drive like shit if not.

@@gregstultz5063 Stock 127,000 mile bottom end, yessir

It is largely plug and play, provided you have someone such as Doug from Wiregap make you a harness. This car is running now and I have a few hours of content I need to edit to put together in the final video.

@@patricklala2366 Just recently did. 427rwhp, 390wtq

Yes, absolutely. I just got mine running and during this weekend. There is only minor differences in the early Ravs versus this one, mainly in the transmission mount. I am going to release one final, mega video on everything and go over my thoughts.

It is mostly plug and play, provided you have the correct parts hahaha. As far as the Caldina automatic, I know a few have done it but no one has written it up yet.

Apologies for the late reply. I was running stock injectors and fuel pump for this. Camshafts don't really require any change in fueling for LS motors, at least in my experience. My '99 LS1 is running one of the bigger off the shelf cams from GPI and is still stock fuel all the way.

@@martinmotorscoHello I own a Chevrolet express 6.0 LQ4 with 90,000 miles, I live in France in a region where the climate is temperate, I do 6000 miles per year, I drive mainly in the summer, and I tow a 6000 lbs trailer, should I stick to the oil recommended by the manufacturer 5W30 or can I use a 5W40 for example???

apologies for the late response. No fly cut on this one, even with a .040 thinner gasket. Compression somewhere in the 10:9-11.1 range. No clue on power, it's a grudge stick car with 4.56s and some mild weight reduction. 😊

Never had it dynoed, probably somewhere in the low 400s. Still has stock 853 heads, just with a thinner gasket for a mild compression bump.

Thank you for watching! Trying to keep on it but I work for a ag shop and we are deep in hay season right now!

@@martinmotorsco any chance you can go over the alternator mounting as well?

​@@hayame1924I definitely can. Car is currently at the tuning shop right now, but once I get it back, expect content to resume as normal.

Can't wait. Got a 2 door rav and have been thinking about doing this swap

I'm in Lane County, no DEQ down here and my car has all emissions and EVAP codes turned off.

@@martinmotorsco Nice. Unfortunately I’m stuck with DEQ up here in Multnomah. That cam sounds good. 🪓🪓🪓

That is a BIG compliment coming from you, Paul. I have watched a lot of your videos since September and you are a godsend!

To preface this, I don't know how the second generation Ravs are laid out compared to my first gen, but in essence, the 3S engine bolts up to any S series transmission(Celica, MR2, Camry etc. etc.). 3/4 engine mounts are on the transmission itself and none are on the transfer case, so in theory, you would not need to make it AWD unless you really wanted to. There's nothing wrong with doing this swap to a FWD Rav, many have done it. Mine was already AWD though and I wanted to keep that, plus if you have watched the intro short and the first episode, you'd find that the whole reason I even started this was because of a bad transfer case. Hope this helps, feel free to reach out to me on Facebook at Martin Motorsports & Co if you have any further questions.

@@martinmotorsco Thank you so much! Really appreciate the help

I’m also looking to swap my 04 Rav since the 2AZ that was in it blew. Mine is already the AWD model. If you have any info on how that’s going I’d love to hear it!

The 2ar also makes a lot of power if you haven't considered that. 270whp without turbo on Marc's last build from Frankenstein Motorworks. 2.5L, excellent torque, aluminium block, and an abundance of engines/parts since it was used in several vehicles over a decade of production. I don't think there is any 4.2 of this swap out there. People have not done many swaps on the Rav4.2, whereas many have on the Rav4.1 gens. I have a spare 3sgte from my MR2, but I think I might go the 2ar route, if not 2gr. Still years away from tinkering around on mine though... I love these videos! They get people excited and start talking about swaps. To Martin Motorsports, thanks for sharing your experience!

Always droning, gets worse with load.

If I had to it over again, I'd agree that it would be easier to remove the harness off the engine when it's out. That's my plan for the GTE when I put the entire combination back in.

@@martinmotorsco ahah we live and learn, I will be doing this swap in march, already refreshed the gen 5, now im waiting till the weather gets a lil better up here in Toronto!

I am, yes. Going to use a stock E250F transmission, I will be making another video like that when we do the swap, that will probably be a couple episodes away.

Our pleasure!

I like it, but if you want quiet, this is the opposite of it. Super loud outside because the kit comes with bullet mufflers with no packing inside. The figment is eh, but for the price you really couldn't complain.

Oh, and it drones AWFUL from 1500-1800RPM

@@martinmotorsco thanks for the feedback man! can you really hear the difference between the y pipe and the x pipe in person?

@@swmo_SS this was bone stock before I tore it apart, couldn't really answer that haha.

Just get full true dual ​@@swmo_SS

No, but you should, would drive better.

@@martinmotorsco ok thanks

Nope, this is even with a 40 thousandths thinner head gasket as well
