Message	Hi, I'm looking to twin turbo swap my na 300zx (92). I found engine, and would like to know if i could fit the motor and transmission in my honda minivan? Or would i need a pickup truck? Has anyone hauled a motor and trans in their minivan? (no turbos or ex. manifolds, just longblock and transmission) Also how can i place motor on truck (or minivan) to keep it standing nicely? wooden planks or? Also how can i check motor for inspection? Seller said he has done compression test when motor out, but when i check it what should i look for? Thanks. (sorry if bad questions)
