I have put a lot of my time & labour into this project & I have had to research a lot of stuff that you could have done.
You havent been down in three weeks to do anything on your car at all, so the fj is half bolted in & the gear box mount seems to be wrong so the g/box is being supported by the hand brake lever for the moment

& I had to cut the tunnel because the g/box is longer & sits heaps higher, I think Matt
s has some photos of the carnage......
So now the motor is in you & all your m8's will be able to finish it off at the rents place

, I'll still give you help with finishing it if you need it.
There is still heaps to do & heaps more $$$$ to be spent on this car to get it to run, like turbo dump pipe & zorst, custom tail shaft & maybe g/box mount, oil + oil filter, fuel filter & fuel hose & fuel pump & surge tank + clamps, inlet piping between turbo & afm, dizzy, radiator & fans, wiring of the motor, fuel pumps, fans, is needed just to start it!

FJ fitment, lol

I took photos earlyer but my phone is fu**ing up & took more just b4 dark, can see here I started with tin snips but had to get out the grinder & then use vise grips to make the gear box fit.

S12 FJ20 YO!

The FJ G/box is sitting on the old ca20 x member with half of Lukes old mount that was broken & a block of wood 4 now, I had to put the x member on with only 2 bolts, the 2 front holes in the mount into the 2 back holes of the car (if u know what I meen), the gear box is sitting heaps further back & heaps higher & a little to the right for now.

& it did rain last night filling up the spark plug wells
