Ok question? if 3 cylinders are 400psi why couldn't you put in one piston would it matter if the reading was a bit higher or lower
Not ideal, but could be done,Quote:

Just thought mate as a new second hand motor is just out of reach at the momentQuote:

Yeah understandable, if the bore can get away with a hone, that'll be about as cheap as you can get.Quote:

Bugger roofy that really really sux mate. Yeah let us know if you need a hand at all. Hopefully work out something reasonable to get it going nice soon.
That would be Readies in Bendigo. He does heaps of conversions so mightt have a few around. You should be giving some serious thought to your options though Roofy, dropping in a TD42 or LS1 should be something you at least cost out bud. Talk with Clint Read about what he can do for you mate.Quote:

Bugger!! What year is the Patrol Roofy? Is it an early model or a later car?
