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-

I don't mean to just throw in a question here and ruin the flow but so it is possible to throw in a 3sgte onto a 5sfe tranny? It can handle it well, or not optimal? Second, what was done to use only the front transmission, do you block off the axle that controls the rear wheels because of the front wheel drive tranny?
