I'm not 100%sure but I think its in the 30-50k mark. Happy to be proven wrong.

Are you looking new or second hand.

If yours is a ZD30CRD and in good nick Brunswick quote as of two weeks ago is $30,000 exchange (IE they get your engine and flog it off).
That was drive in, drive out, 3.9 diffs etc etc
I might add that isn't the P400 engine, they cost more

Zd30 di done 325000 lol it's tired and i don't want it any more

[oncedisturbed]

Brunswick quoted me 37k for my 4.8 when it died last year.

Have a chat ti Shaun100 as I think he did a conversion on his

[ThomasWatson]

Yeah will do otherwise might just go buy a gu with a 4.2 in it and be done with it that way

[the evil twin]

There are a couple of really nice 6.5's on Gumtree at the moment with heaps of fruit for 35 to 40 G's which is the cost of a conversion alone if your engine is blown/shagged

I hear Brunswick now want mid 30's for a conversion job. If you can get one second hand, then it might be the best way to go.

A good 4.2 might be easier, but getting harder to find good ones too.

Do you guys have a rough idea how much it would cost me to do a td42 conversion I can do all the work myself (motor mechanic by trade) just wondering what I need I know the motor and adapter to fit my gearbox but what else is needed

Is you use the search function I'm sure you will find the information you are looking for, now that ab fixed it there's no excuse lol
