well i figured if you can put a h22 into an accord and integra,then it shouldnt be that dificult, u should throw in a ls into the engine bay and take it from there, maybe fab mounts, shift linkage and custom harness and axles and possibly a chipped ecu.

go to a junkyard and find a ac bracket like the one you have and try it on a ls, might not fit but that can be fab also.
