90sam:
Would an izuzu 2.8 turbo diesel fit into my 90 N/a diesel and how easy would it be to put in? Wpuld it need any welding and would it match up to the gearbox? Anyone done it before, or have any advice?

90sam:
Anyone  :?  If they did then it would be good cause they are fairly cheap and reliable from what ive read. and easy to tune up  :twisted:

smo:
Yes it possible, as for further info....youll have to wait until someone who has done it comes along.

Common probs with engine changes are exhause and intake manifolds, engine mounts, gearbox conversion plates to allow mounting and electrics if it has any :)

Terranosaurus:
MIght be easier to use the Isuzu gearbox and trandfere too if the outputs are on the right side for a landy. Lot easier to have a couple of custom props made up than to mess about with gearbox adaptor plates and custom clutches etc. Plus the gearing will be matched to the engines characteristics too.

90sam:
Hmm thats not really an option! ive seen a couple of conversion kits so i think that shall be the way forward! Anyone got any info on the engine? or how hard it is to fit? Do all the pipes etc match up?
Cheers
