This is a car i built for a buddy of mine. I plan on doing a write up on it when i have time and i actually feel like it. But, for right now ill just give you a sneak preview of the near finished project. As of right now it runs, I've been driving it around a little, and I'm trying to get a scanner to clear the codes. The power is amazing till it pops in to limp mode. I'm going to be trying to producing a relocation bracket for the alternator for those people who don't want to chop up there head light. (ex. true ctrs that we just got about two months ago). I'm also going to make some spacers to drop the motor just a hair for some hood clearance (thats with the j32a3 manifold so the spacers shouldn't effect the axel angle) If these parts turn out how i want them to they will be done in billet aluminum and ill try to produce them for who ever needs them. I think I'm going to make the intake out of some exhaust pipe and just paint but ill start my thread toward the end of this week when i get some of the little extras out of the way. My dead line to have this car finished is the end of this month for the show in Nashville. So for anybody that's close swing on through and check it out ill have a couple more of my builds there to.
If you have any questions just pm me on here.

You should have gotten an alternator bracket with the Hasport mounts....And it looks like you made your own passenger side bracket, why didn't you go ahead and shorten it then?

And the shorter manifold isn't the J32A3, it's the J37 from the 09 TL.

im going to put the altenator down at the bottom of the motor and the j32a3 may not be the shortest but it will work just fine to give me the clearence for the hood and the reason behind the mount is its a eg bracket that i welded in and flushed it where it would have a stock appearance
