After looking at the mods required, we decided to leave the engine alone and not swap the front cover. We will stick the the original plan and just make a new rear mount.

FC mounts wont help unless you swap in an FC front subframe, which wouldnt actually be a terrible way to do it...

Could you give a few details on how you competed the swap also? Did you use factory ecu? What did you use for ignition pickup? What front cover did you end up using?

Yes mike please share how your mounted the motor and what ecu and ignition you ended up using. Thinking of going a similar route.
