fd3s swap?

i have been looking around these forums for some answers to a fd swap in a fc shell.. i didnt have any luck in finding it..all i found was that you cant put the fd tt kit on the turboII motor..but i was wondering if anyone can help me out here..i want to put the fd TT motor in my fc3s..here is some question i have about it..

1- is it possible to do this swap?
2- what is all needed?
3- do i need the fd drive shaft or can i just use my fc3s drive shaft?
4- will all the mounts need to be customize?

p.s. my guy is selling his whole complete fd motor and everything to me for only $1200 with only 23,000 miles on it..he dropped a supra motor in there with a t70 turbo..so he has no use for the motor anymore..can anyone help me out here before i buy the engine?

1. Anything is possible
2. You don't wanna do it.
3. For the money it would require to swap a 13bTT into an FC you could probably make your 13bt have 500+ hp

Not worth it...
It's all in the FAQ stickies, so the OP's search skills need to be improved.
