I started my swap last night! Got the engine out and the 3sgte mounted onto the 5s-fe trans. within about 4 hours. The motor mount next to the timing cover had to be modified to fit correctly. Ive heard before its a direct fit for the 5s-fe motor mounts. Its not! Only one bolt lines up without modifications. I took the mount to the grinding wheel and managed to make it fit well. If anybody wants pics give me your e-mail and Ill send you some pics of the mount. Hope this will better prepare some of the future swappers! later-

actually its pretty common knowledge that the passenger side mount has to be modified if you use 5s-fe mounts. But who researches these days anyway? Pics of progress? What year 3S?
