    Also with those turbos posted what am I looking for?? you say including lines..
    Some may have the gu lines (water and oil lines) cross over pipes, exhaust manifold etc) which we can make work with your set up. You're better off sending Matty some links to the ones you find and let him advise mate.

    Needs to have minimum shaft play and I'm sure a few other things that matty would hopefully sort you out.

    I'm sure Rossco wouldn't mind you going for a spin in his mate.

    Bugger just checked eBay and the two I saw a few days ago are gone. Only one left is that one with the safari intercooler.

    Ok where do I start LOL
    I have just done the TB42 carby to the TD42 after market turbo engine swap myself so here goes
    You will need a TD42 bell housing, TD42 starter, TD42 power steering pump would be better than trying to relocate yours as the petrol one is on the other side to the diesel one. Engine mounts could be either 2 hole or 4 hole depending on what year yours is, I use custom mounts much stronger specially if your running a turbo set up. I think it's easier to use the petrol wiring harness that you have if it's the same as my 91 carby one. You can get rid of the fuel canister. You will need a TD42 alternator with the vacuum pump on the rear & a vacuum canister. You have to extend you alternator wires over to the other side of the engine as well as the temp censer wire. You starter wires will be ok to use as is. Your oil pressure wires will be ok as is. You can set up your Glo plugs through a Solanoid that you can buy from any electrical shop ( this is easy) when the time comes PM me and I will show you. You can get a tachometer cluster & fit that or just pull the taco out of a diesel cluster & put it in your petrol cluster like I did. You need a taco censer which should come with your diesel motor which has two wires that needs to be wired to which ever cluster you decide to use. ( when you get around to doing this part let me know & I will help you with it ) PM me if you need anything explained . I used my coil wire for the diesel pump solinoid because it comes on when the ignition is turned on and is off when the ignition is off. Its all worth it in the end though more grunt less fuel less to go rong out bush. Cheers Grant.

    The first dump you linked is probably one of the better ones you can get for the factory turbo as it's cast. Don't look at dumps until you have decided on your turbo.

    Also the vac pump alternator thing will be dependant on the model of engine you get.
