> [@Garick](#): > > wait…so you want to build 3 separate powertrains for this car and swap back and forth for different events/moods/etc? yup:sword: 1. blocks will have mounts modified to match up with stock location on the rolla and therefore will be “drop in” 2. each block is(through the same company) capable to mate with the supra tranny and therefore “drop in” 3. each block will be supported with its own ECU that will be piggy-backed by a Perfect Power SMT-6 and therefore each block will be “plug in” 4. the most major modifications needed are shaving of the firewall to adequately house the lexus V8(this means trouble areas will be modified to neatly/physically/correctly house the large block) as to make it perform at the level i expect. you guys think im crazy. but i already know of two who run around with 1uz-fe swaps that change over to st00k motors for time attack. > **[Toyota Corolla AE86 - Lexus 4.0 V8 Engine Swap - Super Street Magazine](https://www.motortrend.com/featuredvehicles/130_0609_toyota_corolla_ae86_lexus_v8_engine_swap/)** > > This old school Toyota Corolla AE86 has a killer Lexus V8 4.0 engine swap.

> [@Garick](#): > > should be a fun car. Doing that kind of work wouldn’t be my idea of a good time but best of luck to you. its not as terrible as you think. the transmission wont be pulled with the motors. just the motors themselves. i have a friend of mine who is a master mold maker with Mosler automotive who can make an aluminum bell housing adapter that matches up with each block. the only thing i will swap out each time are the blocks themselves, the ECU/wires(which will be tucked/organized for easy removal/install) and fuel system minus pump/psi regulator. the car is an 82, so its not like its got all the different wires/electronic devices that require wires like cars do today.
