1GZ-FE Toyota V12.

If you google 'Smokey' Nagato, you will find he dropped this motor in a Supra and made 950 HP turbocharging it with some additional mods for durability of course.

The 1GZ is just a couple inches longer than the LS1 and the serp belt system is shorter.

We just measured from rear block to front pulley is 750mm (29.5")

29.5 inches would put the front of the engine inside the 944 radiator frame/hood latch.

It'd also stick up above the hood/nose panel seam about 4"

Be awesome for a bodyless go-kart (like the old Campeck car).

It pulls like a mule on roids.....
Mind you it's sitting in a 2900lb Porsche, not a bloated Supra.
