Here in UAE the solution is to fit the old nissan with big US v8...
For the moment I don t want to do it. I want to keep the original engine.
Just to change Camshaft Exhaust and Ecu.
15 years ago in France the patrol on Paris Dakar had 260 hp with the 4500. For me that is enough.
For what its worth the tb42 is virtually the same motor and there is a company called Crow cams here in melbourne that may have one that will suit your needs straight off the shelf but personally I would install your megasquirt, upgrade the fuel system and bolt on a turbo. That should by rights give you the the best bang for your buck! You'll be tearing up the dunes in no time at all

Look up member Scottmeister and send him a PM. He's quite the specialist for MS3 in a 4.5.
If you're thinking 260 HP at the wheels, I doubt you'll get that from a 4.5 without forced induction or a lot of very good engine work like valves, cam, balancing, porting in & out, etc..
En tous cas je te souhaite bonne chance!
Merci
Or only 200 hp at the wheels but more that I have today...
I don t know why but I am feeling a big difference between my patrol with 200 hp on the paper and my 110 with 4.2 v8 200 hp too on the paper
