Hi guys
I couldn't find anything on this subject on the forum so I'll ask the question:
Is it possible to fit a 2.5/2.7ltr V6 Vitara/XL7 engine and Gearbox, manual or auto, in a jimny?

I've contemplated this for quite sometime, I've put a 1.5 vvt in my 06 jimny already and it did give a noticeable difference in power but its just not enough, I've already got reduction gears to help push the 30" tyres and I've looked at the sd supercharger kits but I still think I'd be better of going for more displacement gains and torque gains and good reliability in the v6 out way just putting a supercharger on and ringing the guts out of a 1.5

Either way back to the question at hand, is it possible?
Obviously mounts and things will have to be custom and I'll require the entire loom and ECU from the donor car, these things don't concern me as I'm quite skilled in that area and have done them b4.
Will it fit and will it work?

Thanks guys any info would be great
