there are no swap mounts or wiring harnesses available for this swap (that i know of). this is an all-custom job. please do more research and see if you are prepared for what it really takes to accomplish this.
refer to this as a start.

he is only one of a few folks with an inline 6 turbo motor in their LS. info is limited b/c the folks who do this kinda thing are very rare.

quoted me $3200-$3800 for a turn key 2jz ls400 if I supplied the jdm engine and trans, so your looking at 6ish ready to go
