The plan as it stands:
1. The 'new' motor in and running LPG only, the EFI manifold, an adaptor kit from Gas Research to use the EFI manifold and TPS, my dizzy, and assorted other goodies off my current engine installed on this also.
2. Work out conversion to petrol (bigger injectors primarily) and remove 90 litre LPG tank in rear and replace with long ranger 148 litre petrol tank, with 40 litre LPG tank to go under the drivers side where the old sub tank resided (at this point, turbo and running dual fuel).
3. Air to water intercooler install (at this point turbo, intercooled, and dual fuel).
4. Rebuild my current engine's bottom end only and install down the track (now have spare everything just about to keep for a rainy day).
End result - turbo charged, intercooled, fully rebuilt TB42 punching out about 220-230 kw's at the rear wheels, carrying 188 litres of usable fuel.
Fingers firmly crossed!!!
More importantly.....How's the Tojo going? lol

WASH YOUR MOUTH OUT SCOTTY!!!!!
I even had to think about buying one [ a cruiser] as i'm concerned the troll can't handle the house behind it. We will see what doctor simon says today...........or if i could find a troll with a v8 oooohhh "V8"...........we'll have to see.
Watch out there's a Poo "Yota" lurking in the shadows !
No photos, but the engine is in!!! Most stuff connected, but the throttle body/gas carby causing some headaches .. getting an adaptor made up for the turbo to lift it up a bit to make the plumbing easier and avoid fouling the air con lines, and fingers crossed, should be kicking over tomorrow ...
Oh, and it will run as such with the petrol setup as it is (problem when boosting up) but if these injectors Jason found are the ticket, then it's well and truly on the right track.
Here's to success!!! And a mighty fine transplant for Tank!!!
Good luck Biggus hope the plan comes together I love it when A plan comes together hahahahha
