13b or 12a in any old toyota is the same and also VERY easy. you can use a .125 (1/8") inch steel plate that goes from one side of the frame to the other as a motor mount.(same as most V8 tube frame cars) as long as you use a 12a front cover.



after thats you just need to mount the tranny and have a custom driveshaft made. there are no direct swaps or bolt on kits for this. but its crazy simple...but you need to know how to cut metal and weld, or know someone who does...

so whats the pros and cons of doing this swap i was gonna put a 2jz into my ae86 but i think a tII would be more up what i want to do.
