Not sure where you get the foam engines from but most shops just use the gearbox/tranfer cases with no internals as I dont think you can get them in foam.

You can cetainly get US motors in plastic/foam.

Don't fancy the chances of the 304/308 or 1UZ though - not enough chassis builders working with them IMHO.

DOHC ford, Cummins, honda... but no 1UZ.

I'm making one now
it's never a problem until it can't be fixed, even then it' only a minor set back
