It's done.... taken a while and I've got myself a nice big debt at T4WD.
1HZ motor and new gearbox replaced the old 2H. 4l to 4.2l didn't seem much of a difference. I have dreamt of a V8 diesel for years... My friendly mechanic at T4WD suggested I go the 1HZ [with turbo] as it's Toyota and therefore had less engineering remifications... and a little cheaper.
It's back and driven and thousand clicks. Wow! What a difference. So far I'm happy and the big rig now cruises up hills in 5th, keeps up with traffic and has so much more pull!
There are sure to be a few problems. Still some wires hanging to sort out... and now to justify things I'll have to spend a heap more,,,,
