I think the pushrod v8 would be better for keeping the weight distribution closer to stock when compared to an inline 6. Just saying.
What about weight balance? Wouldn't the longer (longitudinally) 2jz push the weight further out front? That is, unless one can mount it even farther back than the FA20.

Also, OP, I take it you've also sourced the transmission as well?

Because this way is MUCH more personally satisfying?
