After looking at the pics of several SR20 installations and the
modifications necessary to the frame I have to question the swap for most
people who are planning to do it unless the owner has the fabrication skills
or the $$$$$ to pull off the swap by having someone else do it - and do it
well.

While it's nice to have the HP I think other swaps would be a lot easier and
cheaper for many with limited fabrication skills and tools - like me.

Just a thought.
