I was out in the shop today and I had this idea. I thought it might be cool....
I was thinking of having some people come up, someone with a good video camera and editing skills, and doing a monster garage-style engine swap race. Basically a 24 hour straight out engine swap, like start at 7 am and it has to be done by 7 am the next day. I'm thinking something like a 3SGTE swap into an ST, including all the wiring, front mount intercooler, EVERYTHING, in 24 hours straight. Maybe have a bunch of people up to hang out and goof off, whatever. Then have someone edit the video, speed up parts of it, do some voice-over, and then put it out there on the internet. Thoughts? PS: This won't happen until late next year at the earliest.

Well the idea was more along the lines of having a big party at the shop with people keeping me pumped up all night as I bang out a swap in 24 hours straight... that sorta thing.
