Just ask for a Camry that has a 1MZ, most of the parts are interchangeable.

I'm not sure what you're having difficulty with. Usually, you do like Greek said. Sell your car and buy the V6 version. If for some reason, you have to do the swap, then buy a donor car. I found a wrecked donor V6 with 5 speed on ebay for $2500. Because it was a 5 speed it took a long time to find it, but if you don't mind auto, then they are a dime a dozen. Of course, if you don't mind an auto, then why wouldn't you just buy an UN-wrecked one and drive it?

Anyway, everything should fit just fine. The car came with that engine. The repair book I have from Toyota has sections for both versions and many of them are the same. Motor mounts should be the same, etc.
