    Look into Predracer's build. I think he has a 81.

    It doesnt look like an easy swap.

    Yea, unless you're putting it into a 4x4 truck it isn't an easy swap. I'm still sorting out all the wiring for mine. But it can be done and is a real big improvement.

    It's a very nice engine to just stumble across lol

    I've always wanted to put one in an AE86 Corolla
