Default 2jZ swap

ok so I have a friend that put his lexus with a 2jz with 70mm garret single turbo swaped in into a tree, engine is fine but he is thinking about selling the engine and I have first dibs on it. I'll be able to get everything, tranny, engine, turbo system, ECU , all the little things like upgraded vacuum and fuel lines ect.

does any one know how hard or if there is even room to do the swap?

thanks

If you really want that set up I would suggest buying a 1990 or around that year Supra and dropping the set up into that. You could have a potential sleeper if you keep it looking stock. Oh and the swap is easier too.

oh I know I have a few rolling chassis lying around I could drop it into, i would just like to do it in the scion which is my daily driver. He found another cheap lexus sc any way so I think he may keep it
