Does someone have a copy of that motor mount template for a 3s-gte conversion by chance?

I am looking for an AW11 swap. I have an AE92 Corolla with a 3s-gte swap, I have heard the engine bays are the same but backwards, and I need to redo the motor mounts, as the previous owner did not.

I agree with rob,the mount templates for a corolla will be absolutely nothing like the ones for a mk1 mr2

Okay, a friend said they were the same, maybe he just meant the engine bay itself was somewhat similar.. Too bad there wasnt more people who put the 3s-gte in the ae92. I have got some issues, dont know how hard it will be to resolve, probably wont be able to tell until we get into 'er.

should be fairly simple to be honest just like putting it into a mk1 apart from having to make templates for your mounts wiring will be almost the same as in mk1

Wiring is already done. Just the mounts that have to be fixed! I wonder if I'll have to pull the whole motor out to mod the mounts or if i can just lift it enough to make my adjustments.

If the engine is in already then jack it and support it with an engine hoist, remove the mounts if you can and then weld in your new mounts.

Pics would help loads and we'll give you some more advice :thumbsup:
