your profile says you have a 2004 xb dude, yet you posted in the second gen xb forum.
no, you can't simply put a tc engine in a first gen xb. irst off, fitment, it probably wont' fit. won't mate with the transmission, and then you would probably need custom drive axels and lots of custom fabrication.
if you had a second gen xb, it would be much simpler, still some hard work, but not nearly as hard.
but on another note, engines for the first gen xb are a dime a dozen. you can find them for so cheap at junk yards, ebay, craigslist etc.
