Hey guys, my motor blew today, and I was curious as to how difficult it would be to put a 6G72 motor from a 3000GT in. Thanks!

Nobody has done it before, so i'm going with "really hard."

Not to be a jerk, but that's one of those questions that "if you have to ask...."

Exactly.

the 6g72 sits on the wrong side of the engine bay, so motor mounts would take a bit of creativity, then the motor and trans are both massive compared to ours, so either tight fit or no fit...3000gts are pretty big cars, and that motor is crammed in them pretty good, so wouldn't be surprised if the assembly is wider than our bay...but then again a 4cyl is a bit long compared to a v6, so maybe it could fit...
