I was wondering what i would have to do to drop this engine in. I've seen pics and I've search around and couldn't find what needed to be done. I hope one of you guys either knows what has to be done or can tell me where i can find out. thanks in advance

that will be a tough one... I know you need to hack into the firewall, If that doesnt deter you, just hack away and test fit it. You might have to move your driving posistion back.
