Take an engine/assembly from a 3gTL Manual (base if you want 3.2 or type s if you want 3.5)

yeah but a j32(type s) is kind of rare but maybe a j35 will do it. Does the egine mount is the same from a 2g tl to a 3gen tl?

J35 swap in a 2G TL has been done before and on this forum, do a search and you'll find others who have done something similar and should be able to help you figure out your way. .
