    Wow Ben. I was very impressed at the Neerum Creek meet up let alone the day I had a drive several years ago so you could have a listen to the truck out at Beerburrum. You need something else to spend your money on dude. Age is creeping up lol.
    In the words of a Dhuck "QUACK".

    In a nutshell. Lots. I don't think Ben could probably put a figure on it. He might though. A lot of the work done, Ben has done himself plus, I think the cost of the experienced people doing the work would be priceless.

    Cheers. I was just wondering what it would cost those people without the skills, experience or friends to get this type of setup as well.

    Yeah mate. Fecking lots. To do what ben has done takes time and skill. Which costs a bomb. FWIW. I did a total engine rebuilt on a TD42t, new pump, turbo, intercooler, new head, mild head work, everything to convert a ZD to a TD. And not even close to what Ben has done and it was around 20k. give or take. I dare say Ben spent less, but he knows what he's doing, and has friends around him who also know, so this all helps. Doing something to the level at what Ben has done, its not just what you know, its who you know.

    Cheers mudski,

    Much appreciated!

    It certainly is something to dream about.
