Hello fellow members,
I have newly aquired a mk2 1986 p-type
And after putting a 2jz in a mk3 chassis i felt that i might have the hang of all this engine swapping business. So the idea has been floating around in my head to do a v8 in a different supra. I would like to do some thing a little more budget friendly like a domestic v8. The ls2 looks like a good canidate but there about $5k for a complete swap just in parts so i thought how about a sbc or a ford 302 or 351w but im not familier with the v8s to know what will be needed to clear the steering and possible to have a/c and powersteering.
I assume this is much like the 1uz swap. just the details i would like to know more about. like k member clearence
