OK I got this spare LS400 Motor here... Mike I need some ideas.

Do you think we can Drop this thing into a 1982 Corolla 1.8? :)
Can we Throw a Manual tranny on this bish? if so, what bolts to the 1UZ?
Do you think Jeff can fabricate some custom slide mounts for this motor?

I need to sketch out a new project soon. I like the Porsche idea, but I know it will broke me due to the cost of Porsche parts.

Im thinkin stick to Toyota crap?

Gazi can get us a SC for under $2000

He is the king of the SC's


Im thinkin of just sending that 1UZ to the junkyard.

Marc.... unless you buying me a V160.. that adapter is useless (good idea and pimp, but surely out of a "project" budget)

Now if they had one for a W55, I could gather IS300 trannies around the country :)
