The MR-2 block should swap right over into a GTS, assuming that you have the old RWD engine to change out the water pump, pulleys, manifolds, and flywheel, etc,etc. The only problem I've heard of is that some of the engine block bosses, i.e. engine mounts, where not tape out on the MR-2 blocks. In my case, everything was a direct transfer. DaveW
