Hey yes i think my gear box is a g52 standard 1rz box.. will look for a diesel box down the track as a spare gearbox and see how my one lasts.. I put my engine in from the top simply because i dont have the gear to hoist the van up and get the engine in from under neath.. gloverman has helped me...

also with using the front sump motor takes away the need for a remote oil filter set up as the oil filter now pops out just behind the steering arm.. have also found a 3.9 ratio lsd head to go on so she should be revving nicely.. will also be running a electric fan to save room and time...

next thing to do is get the traction control butterfly milled off as this point is not letting the engine cover sit in the right place.. and if i still do not have enough clearence will make a block up to place between the throttle body and the butterfly to angle the butterfly set up downwards...

the 1uz was placed into the empy space the next day and with a little bit of chopping managed to get quite alot of room. the first problem i ran into was the sump posistion as all van motors are rear sump to clear the crossmember and i have a front sump lexus.. so reposistioned the crossmember...
