I'm curious how well the 102mm TB will work for you. I wanted to go that route too but was doubting the investment coupled with the FAST mani. GL!

How much was the motor? How much was the kit from Sikky? How does the total weight of the engine and its accessories compare to the VQ?

kit is 2400 roughly.. but you still need alot more accessories to make the swap. unless you dont care about AC.. lol
