Hey guys, been looking around the last day but cant seem to find exactly what i am looking for.
I am looking at buying this motor
http://forum.clubna-t.com/showthread.php?t=11228
after talking to a couple people, some say it would be better for me, or easier to swap out my head and put it on the motor which is not a big deal, while i was also told that in order to get this motor to fit properly in my car i would have to fabricate custom motor mounts as well.
I want this motor but if i cant just bolt it up in place, not sure if it will be worth it, because of shipping, etc.

Let me know what you think asap as i would like to get it figured out by tomorrow as i am very serious about buying it.

Thanks,
Cliff

GE motor for a GE motor from supra waste of time and money either rebuild your motor or swap in GTE parts/entire GTE motor if anything.

Well the only benifit if you are using a motor from a supra between 93-98 non vvt-i. The vvti has weak rods and pistons but the other thing is the gte motor has oil squirts big deal. You punch the motor 20 over the oil squirts are gone. So what do you have ??????? A GE motor....

I would stick with GE basically same block as gte supra both are good to 1,000 hp swap in gte internals pistons and rods with thicker gte head gasket (1.4mm) and your good to go!
