you will have to have a custom gear linkage so that it wont foul on the starter motor, also you may have problems with the exhaust manifolds and downpipes fouling on the steering rack.

Bin the power steering rack and fit a EPS one. It'll clear up much needed room in the engine bay.

That sounds like a horse sneezing or something.
And I never said you couldn't get it running, just that proof's needed that you did that one yourself.
I'm maybe not getting the joke, what's the top picture of?

Im doing a 2.5 v6 conversion at the minute and from what I understand you need to cut the flange off the rear exhaust manifold and weld it back on in a different position.
Since the manifold is cast, you need to heat the metal up before you can weld it.
I put a couple of pics of mine up- its a long way off being finished, maybe by the summer
