Its a bugger that all the info that was on club4AG seems to have been lost forever.

You need either a W or R series tranny. The T5 from an SR5 won't last more then 5 minutes.
You need a bellhousing adapter, clutch, flywheel, throwout bearing and spacers. Expect to spend 1000$ on this in total.
You need to have a custom exhaust and custom headers made, this can be pricy as well.
Expect to do minor welding work to the subframe and oil pan.
You need to have a new rear axle made up because the v8 will tear the original one to shreds.
You'll need to have a custom prop-shaft made up.

You can fit it in without cutting the transmission tunnel if you space down the front crossmember and place the engine a little further forward.

I did the math and ended up choosing to do a F20C swap because its just cheaper to do.

Also 90% of all the weight information on the1UZ is fanboi's repeating what they want to hear. Only trust pics of the engine with all ancilleries on a scale (they are out there). With all said and done expect to add about 200lbs over the 4AGE into the nose of the AE86. Add another 40 or so for the rear axle. It does have ample power to overcome the extra weight.
