Yep, if you are lucky enough to have original mounts then it should bolt straight in (if you have the sump and oil pickup removed).
Although my car has custom mounts (because I didn't have the originals), it bolted straight onto the standard 180b crossmember, and the gearbox xmember lined up exactly right also. Nissanman on the ozdat forums can confirm the above as he used original fj mounts for his 1600.

Martin, so the original DR30 FJ engine mounts i got with my engine will bolt up 2 the xmember if i reverse the sump? As simple as that? I really dont like the idea of having that massive sump up front. thanx Michael ----- Original Message ----- From: "Martin Dunn" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, March 21, 2005 3:39 PM Subject: RE: Cross member... > Mohit, > An alternative to reversing the crossmember is cutting and > rewelding the sump + modifying the oil pickup. > > I did this on my fj20et 180bsss, the original crossmember stays in place > and you can use the standard fj20 mounts, bolts straight in to a 510 if > you reverse the sump. > > Hope that helps. > > Cheers > > Martin > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Terry Rudd > Sent: Monday, March 21, 2005 3:04 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: RE: Cross member... > > That's right Zac.
