Wrong.  the motor is WAY too heavy for that.
The crummydore V6 has the similar power and torque figures as a 4AGZE.
V6 - 127kw, 288Nm
4AGZE - 125kw, 210Nm
The reason I make this comparison is because the 4AGZE weighs about 50kgs less and is half the size!!
Don't do it.

 are they the figures! That's abysmal when you've got 3.8 litres to work with! I guess it is old tech though... The 3800 must be pre-ecotech, right? I was sure they weren't that weak.

Ecotechs are slightly better, but not by enough to justify the conversion.

Still way too heavy for a zook. I know because I've done the conversion. Great rockcrawler. useless for EVERYTHING else. except Mud drags
No chance of driving it on the road either.

as in, out of a tornado/typhoon??? ive often wondered how a zuk would go with one of those under the bonnet... thats surely gotta twist the chassis, nearly 6 times the torque that the sierra motor puts out...

Lol yeah Tornado. Had a 350rwkw 6 speed manual from the old ute. Would have been a heap of fun in a car half the weight. If I still had it I would of put it in for sure regardless of the weight distribution.
Maybe I can work out a way of shoe hornin my current 550hp Boss motor in it....

Except the F6 motor is a straight six and would not fit in the engine bay.....
