Looks good! It seems like you did it in a relatively short amount of time (3-4 months). Any tips for doing it like this?

Alright cool, makes sense. Just used the factor Toyota mounting points and rubber isolators on the frame and added your own metal mounts to the engine. I'm just wondering in case I ever get around to my swap and I have to make mounts
