Very strange question, I know that but I just need to know if a gen 2 engine (12-14) can fit into a gen 3 frame (15-current).
I would have thought that there would be some differences?
 
If the mountings are unchanged,which,as far as I am aware,the casings are the same.The main modifications were inside the cylinder head.
You would need to use a gen2 exhaust though as the exhaust ports are different.The bigger problems would more likely be ecu electronics.
 
Thanks.
So the exhaust headers could not be used from a generation 3 due to the outlet ports?
 
the engines on the outside are basically the same so will fit,clutch is different on later engines,but actuall engine cases are the same.



if you decide to go this route,i have a gen 3 loom,ECU+ignition set.also standard switch gear off the gen3
