Engine Swap Question

Hey everyone, I have an 05 with a 4.0 and the head gasket went on it. I'm looking to buy a newer engine I'm just not 100% sure which years will swap into my truck. I'm looking at a 2011 engine, Anyone know if that will bolt up? I want plug and play, same exhaust manifolds, everything.
 
05 to current Tacoma, 07 to 09 FJ and 02 to 09(possible cam gear swap)4 Runner engines will work. 11 Tacomas added a smog pump and possibly an EGR so you would have to swap the intake and other parts from the old engine to the new. Gadget at URD knows exactly what will work and what wont.

Ever thought about sticking ARP bolts and MLS head gaskets in there?
 
Yeah but my engine has 127,000 miles and is in need of a clutch. Toyota and other local shops quoted me $2000 parts included (just for doing the head gaskets. Looking into a 2011 engine with 43,000 miles for $2600 shipped. I can swap the engine and clutch on my day off and get rid of 84,000 miles! I will probably sell my current engine if anyone is interested.
