[Supras] JDM motor

[Jamie Crawford]

Words of wisdom from my experiences..

1. Replace the headgasket while you have the chance.  It might set you back
a few hours.. but its worth it.
2. Oil pump and pan must be swapped out, at least for my 88 and my friends
91 jdm swap.
3. I want to say something about swapping motor mounts too...


Other than that..good luck.
