you can fit a pair of donkeys inthere is you have the right tools and enough money. If you can dream it then it can be done. It all depends on how much money you want top spend and who is going to do the swap. Go search and go away.

Yes. Mainly you need to protect your carpets from oil and coolant dripping, but you should be able to just close the hatch if you position the engine right behind the seats. Put some blankets on top so that if it bumps against the glass it doesn't cause any chips or scrape away at the defroster grid. Make sure to strap it down tightly with some good chains or (at the very least) bungee cords. You will find that the FC has hooks for cargo straps in the rear which will provide a good attachment point for your tie-downs.
