    Bugger! what was wrong with it? Just rings and bearings? is it cheaper to reco this engine than your original motor? Was it down on compression?

    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.

    so his words were because i paid so little for it, and because of the exterior condition of the motor (poorly weathered, most of the holes etc not sealed, mud in places) he says he could put it in but there are no guarantees that the motor is gonna work after the install, and could end up costing me more money. i kind of agree with him, reco the motor, get it done properly the first time, NADS it straight away, and i should have a nice reliable car. as a rough timeframe, im seeing late feb as a completion date, being so close to christmas and all. although i could be wrong and the turn around time could be quicker than i think.
