Default Anyone swapped a Lexus 1UZ V8

I ended up with a salvaged SC400 that still has a running engine/trans and is technically drivable, but the body is rough, interior is fubar. Has anyone heard of the 1uz-fe V8 from it being swapped into a 240? I know its one of the lightest and smoothest running v8s around, and its not costing me anything, but am I in for a nightmare trying to transplant it into a Nissan?

will it fit with the stock hood closed? looks small for a v8, small displacement i guess.

Hey man, if you have it, you might as well use it right? lots of custom fabrication will be involved with that.
