I know someone in new york did it....a shop actually. Ur gonna have to google it, thats how I found it. Sorry dont remember the site. From the pics the motor was shoe horned in....it was a really tight squeeze. Lots of fabrication to get the motor to fit, just like the 2jz swap. Wish I had more info but thats all I was able to find.

This is what I'll be doing. It will certainly be a lot cheaper than trying to do fit a 2JZ or RB26 in there.. and will certainly be faster until you mod the RB or the 2JZ significantly.

I say go with the stroker.
