Default Decided to do a motor swap

Got tired of the lack of power options for my IS350 so I decided to go with something I can supercharge and make more than 50hp.



What do you guys think?

I had just finished cleaning up the Jeeps engine bay and was about to start on the IS since my intake comes in tomorrow. It's hard keeping them clean when you live in the desert though.
