    TD42T (i maybe) into GQ - Winnie

    Gents, just trying to work out what else Winnie would need if he bought a TD42T or Ti block to put into his GQ.

    Yes I did it but have a memory like a fish!!!


    1. Water pump I think is same but the cover for the injector pump gear on timing case is different.
    2. Block off Vac pump on timing case
    3. Mount for the power steering pump
    4. Tacho sensor spacer if TI
    5. Rear main seal
    6. Flywheel
    7. New lines for turbo, oil feed and drain.
    8. Alternator oil feed and drain (I think I had to replace one of them from the GQ set up)
    9. Exhaust manifold studs, may as well.
    10. Engine mounts (just for Winnies situation)
    11. Gaskets, glue, etc etc

    You'll need lifters as they're smaller in a silver top.

    I have a bare T block, . I have no vac pump though

    Just buy a motor that has good compression and send it

    Sorry just to clarify that the motor we are looking at is a complete long motor.

    I put a TI motor in mine,

    Removed and blocked the EGR with a kit from performance 4x4 Queensland
    Drivers engine mount is different if using the TI pump
    Had to use GQ oil pressure switch
    I’ve fitted a GQ tacho sensor with a spacer (GQ sensor is longer)
    Used GQ loom, had the GU loom to steal plugs if I needed
    I’m using the vacuum pump on the timing cover and a GU alternator
    My motor came with the turbo flywheel
    Everything else was bolt up

    Why not throw in one of those bullet proof 3.0L di motors. I've heard good things about them

    On a serious note if I'm available I'm more than happy to come help out.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
