1. Will the stock mr2 trans work on the BT engine? Will it be able to handle the power?

2. If I get a BT WITH a trans - will all my stock axles work if they are not included with the engine? And, will they handle the power increase from the 16V to the 20V?

3. I realize the exhaust manifold from the 16V will not work, but will the 20V manifold fit when I raise the enigine in? It's my understanding the entire exhaust will need some work but I just want to see if the manifold can be used off the 20V BT.

The cheapest BT I'm locating with a transmission is around $1300-$1400 shipped. Some ae upwards of $1800! Any feedback here?

Thanks.
