Hi there. Unfortunately, this type of engine swap would most likely require some major fabrication with motor mounts, a new or reprogrammed ECU and other enhancements most likely to work correctly. Since we don’t offer this type of service, it would be best to consult with a local machine shop that could help you with the needed changes.
