i dont recall. but if i didnt i will once i get my hands on a motor. man i wish the adapter had been ready back in july when i still had my busted car. trying to decide on whether to start from scratch with a short block or just get a turn key motor from a wrecked one

Cool idea, and it's a great motor. Just make sure the headgaskets and everything has been done including valve cover gaskets because their probably close to impossible in the truck.

Well, it's being done! Early EJ22e. '85 short frame, with ext cab on it.



Here's how high he's had to lift the drivetrain to get the engine high enough to clear the frame (no body lift). He also had to move it about 6" forward

This would require a lot of cutting and/or body lift to do with an IFS truck!
