2nd gen motors are either 6-ports or turbos, so 6 ports aren't that hard to find. The 6 port will bolt up to your tranny. You can throw a front plate on from a gsl-se and drop a 6port right in, if you put a carb on it. Oh, and you'll need a gsl-se or cosmo oil pan. I think that's about it.

You can make it work. 2nd gens used a crank sensor to replace the distributor, but you can put SE parts back on the block and hook it up. The SE lower manifold will bolt to the block, too, but the runners are small. A little time with a dremel on the manifold-block flange would be a good idea.
