No one??

 

You'll probably get an answer eventually. This particular forum isn't as active as some of the others.

That sounds like a cool project. I personally wouldn't know where to begin unless I had the car in front of me.

Price? A couple grand will get it going.

 

i may actualy know someone who has a fabed motor mount for the car. only thing you would need is a 12a front cover. (or you could modify the 13b to bolt from up front) let me ask the guy. if he doesnt have it still...i will try to explain as best i can.
cost is no to much. it is more forseeing what you need and hving somebody fab it, or do it youself.

 

i've done install on a 510 and 73 corollas. the hardest part on the swap is fabricating the front engine mount, clutch slave cylinder and the driveshaft (it will need to be half rotary and half toyota. here's what i did. i assembled (dummy motor and tranny) a motor and tranny without any internals in it. mainly just the casing and mounted it in the car to determine where the mount woud go. bell housing, lots of pounding on the firewall and floor to clear the clutch slave. If im not mistaken, 510again.com has good info on the transplant. Although its not for a toyota, it will give you ideas. just my 2 cents.
