The 5VZ is basically the fifth and last Toyota omnipotent VZ V6 from the era. The earliest version made his debut in 1988. As the 1vz following 2VZ and 3VZ, and the production ended in 2004.
For the first time, the VZ began to be on duty at the Camrys of the Japanese domestic market and all the trucks and SUVs of car manufacturers at the time. The initial prefixes of the number indicated the engine options based on their application.

He controlled several Lexus models and other Toyota models in his evolution. However, the 5z version is a variant that has actually become apparent when introducing themselves.
Known for its duties on almost all Toyota trucks since 1995. Until 2004, the 5VZ-FE fed a beloved third-generation 4runner, first-generation Tacoma, Tundra T100 predecessor and even Land Cruiser Prado.

This is one of the engines that confirmed the reputation of the car manufacturer due to reliability, durability and reliability. Because of these signs, he especially earned the status of his favorite work horse among four wheel enthusiasts.
But because of this, many of them have accumulated enough mileage, equivalent to traveling to the moon … And maybe back. And while they can still work today with hundreds of thousands of miles on them, age and wearing are still lasted. LC engineering helps to solve this.

Although the 5VZ-FE is known as the most famous Toyota work horses, it is not exactly known for its huge power. Except for 3.4-litras, at best he produced about £ 190 horsepower and £ 220 to rotate.
The Toyota Race Development North American team offered a factory-backed Bolt-on root-type compressor set. This exit increased to 254 hp and £ 270 and no other significant modifications are required.

But I needed to quit a serious coin for it.
LC engineering exceeds LC engineering to provide more than just the recovery of the nuts and bolt. For example, it upgrades the head and valve.
The head itself is useful for port and Polish tasks to reduce induction air friction and improve flow. The company also replaces the factory head screws with an ARP update set for better durability.

And partly the head restoration and reinforcement, its engineers add new valve springs, valve seals, holders and holders.
These are LC Engineering, changing and testing the inner moving parts. For example, they have a machine and pressure testing the block while providing a new OEM crankshaft, connecting rods and oil pump.

The team then replaces the distribution belt and the water pump and the harmonic balancer. However, it also updates other bits by adding King Main bearing covers and renewing hypertects.
While LC Engineering sells a long block, buyers still need old 5VZ-FE to transplant some original parts if they are in good shape. If you need help in the process, they even refer you to the approved store to help you do the job.
