Okay this one is for Mr. Burgandy CS, Im in california and i would like to do the same swap you did except i would like to keep the twin turbos. Would you happen to know if the will fit in the engine bay or is it true that the firewall in america is one inch thicker than the true aristo's? according to what i hear if the one inch myth is true the twin turbos wont fit.... also how is the LSD working out for you??? Thanks in advance

What's up bro. I singled my engine before it went in so I didn't have any problems. The guy I got the engine from just put one in a 2002 GS and he said it was a *itch to fit. I have heard mixed stories on here but he made it fit with minor adjusting. It will fit!!! Just very tight. Also, make sure your turbos are good before you drop it in. It is a pain in the as_ to take the twins off, if it is in the engine. Gooo Single cause you'll want more power, trust me!!

If you are using year specific Aristo motor, you should have no problems at all dropping it in. The stock twins should clear with no problems at all. We will know for sure in about a week or so. Check into my thread about my install, I am constantly updating it.

I am also liking your swap....I am doing a swap in my 98 gs300. I am using a us gte block and my ge head...both have been freshened up. I am also using a supra auto tranny from a 94 SUP. I am hoping that the tranny swap will work with no problems. Good luck with your build.
