not on my own car, but i've seen and helped with 2 others. Just yesterday I saw a Caldina Gen 4 3SGE running in an AE71.Originally Posted by Dimitri
The problem that we came across was that when mounted vertically that oil would pool in the head. This was because there are no oil drain galleys on one side, its designed so that when its on an angle the oil collects on the intake side and drains to the sump. To get around this we had to tap some lines on the exhaust side and run them to the sump.theres no problem sitting the engine upright at all. no mods required.
Im not saying you're way is the wrong way, i'm just suggesting the way that I would do it if I ever owned an IS.
