Also you can mount a 3sge vertically with a oil pan out of a 2s (i f I remember corrrectly)

And holy fuck, its the beggining of the end for this forum
Well the point on the 3S was that, such as the FT-86 is using a Flat 4 engine, instead of a taller inline, it might be an extremely hard swap trying to put an inline in there (all speculation as we can't examine the engine bay up close). A pro to the 3S being a suitable swap would be that you would have to install it at a slant, which would make it easier to clear the hoodline.
