Have a read through Bushwhackers threads on the lexsurf as he has done 3 already and about to start his 4th one.I can supply a rolling shell for you reasonable cost and deliver it for you
Plenty of info on the usa sites. Some guy on there has been doing it for donkeys.
Best thing would be do the research and so the job yourself when your diesel engine blows up
If your going to spend the money anyway...
obviously need to buy a cheap surf and cheap lexus but how easy is the swap.
apart from the surf and the lexus and a lot of sundry mechanical items and a workshop about 400 hours of your time if like me a mere mortal but Bushy can do it in his sleep! and the conversion as well!
the V8 conversion looks a right ###### knuckle scrapping pain in the jacksie!
im a little put off now. i do like a challenge but wiring looms are way way way out of my league and so is making manifolds and getting different parts to fit each other. on top of a few other things i saw in the write up ( ###### good write up by the way).
do i or dont i ....
i could take the engine out of both vehicles....but id then be like the chuckle brothers when it comes to fitting the lex in.
tough decision, cos i really want a V8 roar from under my bonnet....not a 2.4 burp.
