I would love one of those, (much as I love my rb30) :-)Originally Posted by the evil twin
One of those days, hopefully I can get the cash together for the engine conversion, is it worth the expense over a td42?

93 GQ wagon, RB30, extractors, 2 inch tough dog lift, 5 spd, A/T KO2 32's, steel winch bar, rated recovery points, red arc dual battery set up, rhino roof racks, UHF etc etc. Slow and steady might not win the race but it gets me there eventually...
Go a Cummins conversion.
They shoit over any chev conversion..
600+ Nm out of the stock turbo engine..

Wow that's a good price, how hard is the conversion and parts availability and how do they drive?

A few patrols done now but Tbh I have no idea.
Brother is bolting his to an 80..
I would think conversion would be on par with a zd to td or similar as its all mechanical.. it's a 7ltr td42 lol.
Built like a brick shit house to.

Reckon I might do some research, wonder what a 7 litre engine uses per hundred, then again I spose if installing a 7 litre engine, that's not a question to ask, lol

Well it might only be half a litre, but I reckon an extra half a litre would help my RB30 quite a bit.... 😀

Turbo it. That's the best way to get more power from an RB30.
RB30, some 2-3 inch lift auxiliary LPG tanks
Few more mods on the way
