Did it this way when I did the 1UZ/Cressida engine mounts so I could drop the subframe, worked perfectly but all I used was a piece of 2" Steam pipe and 2 short pieces of 6mm aluminium angle up behind the strut studs.
You HAVE to flow more to make the same HP as Gas, it has better detonation resistance and you get a slight cooling effect from the volume of fuel going into the engine so you can run more spark advance/boost and make more power.
Buy some Load Binder straps, I use small 750 Kg ones, put support bar across the towers then tighten binder, unbolt engine mounts pull binder tighter then swap out the mounts no need to drop the subframe.
Well I did turn 50 earlier this month ;)
Figured you wanted something V8/AWD/LS powered,
Instead of 2 ton of ugly I suggested the GTO, as I said both my cars are built on this platform one is a wagon the other a Ute.
