My supra has been off the road over 3 weeks now 
And to please my dad(live with him so things gotta be as harmonius as possible), i decided to get a mechanic to change a 5m-ge and w57 box into my car(in the process getting hte ge head rebuilt)
After 2 and a half weeks of buggerising around this mechanic finally takes a look at both cars just to see what he's getting into. Ring him this morning, the idiot tells me that it cant be done, cost too much etc etc
I ask why
he says:
First up the air intake boxes are on different sides, they have different sumps so that means they arent interchangable and have differen oil pick ups(that right term?). Also the engine sits 40mm forward and that means new mounts. Also the wiring and loom are totally different.
I think "you fucken lazy prick"
But i say "i'll talk to my dad and get back to you"
looks like i'm doing this myself(well not me...a friend  )
keep you all updated
