Yes, I am sure engine mounts plus A LOT more would need to be changed. This would be a complete Frankenstein swap and I am sure the reason you cannot find much info is because swapping in the VQ wouldn't be worth the time or work involved because there is simply better motors to tune that would swap in easier, possibly with the VG30ET that comes in your body style already.
