There are many hassles trying to run the 3s-fe in RWD form. The oil pan isn't compatible, head oil draining isn't quite right, manifolds are wrong, etc.

I would suggest starting with an Altezza 3s-ge transmission if you are really insistant on using the 3s-fe. It is quite hard to find a RWD s-series block compatible belhousing otherwise...

What is the project for?

It is going to be more work and more expensive to use this motor than to do any number of other options.

I think it would be easier to rebuild the orginal diesel Mog motor and turbocharge it instead. Similar power, much less custom work, and probably cheaper in the end.

Thanks fr your reply
i know white90dx , but all this that you say need money ,rebuild & turbocharge
after all the orignal motor is only 32HP :/ (1700cc diesel 50 years old)

i found the 3sfe engine for free (no money ) and some friend can fit it on the gearbox whith out money too
so after all will be not cheaper to rebuild & turbocharge.

By the way im gona use the bellhousing that i ready have finaly ,
this is becoase i dont found nothing yet :/
and im not sure about the result , im just testing .
