The motor was just test fit today....It should be running in the near future depending on how busy he gets.

I measured it and it is about as tall as an SR but and about 3 inches longer. The tranny sits closer to the climate control about 1-2 inches and a hole had to be made closer.

It's going to be heavier and the weight balance of the car will be a little off. It also helps that the motor is mounted LOW in the engine bay, lots of hood clearance and good for center of gravity.

This car is going to be his "mess around" car. He said he'll be satisfied w/ about 320whp for now.

Wiring is going to be a nightmare....but he's done wiring on Supra's before, and he knows 240 wiring....he'll make something work.
