    zip I think with the design of the Mr2 you would be pretty safe anyway in that case as the roofs much stronger than you average 4 door saloon! That said I wouldnt want to be the test dummy in one!

    well thaught id better give the new grinder a go today so finished cutting out the bulkhead


    also cut out the battery cage and old enginemounts then pushed the engine under and hoisted her into place



    after i centered her up ive got loads of room on the sides to make the manifold and fit the turbos in


    the engine does sit in the bay real well i thaught she may be a bit tall but the ground clearence is about the same as the 4a

    also after setting up her hight i can move the engine about 5 inches further farward i just have to alter the cooling pipes which i knew would need customizing anyway

    hear is one of my audi gearboxes

    next will be to measure and set this engine up properly then weld in two chassis rails alongside the engine to mount it onto via some transit engine mountsso thats it for today podge

    ha ha how brutal is that! class podge just class mate! by the time you move that engine forward a smidge there looks to be enough room for the shafts to line up properly too,who would have thought!

    keep it coming! :popcorn:
