Surfenstein fitted a 5 ltr V8 in and Bushwhacker is fitting a lexus engine.
if you look on the aus site or yotatec they have done some others

If your not planning on doing the work yourself, contact Nigel at www.supertrux.com

Im sure he can arrange for some form of engine swap.

Gotta be honest, havent seen that many diesel - diesel conversions. A lot seem to be Diesel to petrol.

Good luck!

planning on doing the work meself,
got the truck free, and the spare engine,
so if thay bolt in, its only bout days work,
then sell it on, so tidy profit to be made

Very unlikely to be a bolt-on job. Most engine swaps are hard and/or long work, involving custom fabrication and lots of modification.

i was meaning just bolting up to the bellhouseing,
if the its the same bolt pattern then the rest is easly done, but finding this out is allways the hardest part
done a few engine swaps

I'd also like to know about this as i would like to put a bigger diesel in my surf.

well for a start it would be good to know if the surf you have is manual or auto.?

hi, sorry its a manual,

i think the 2.4 out of the 70 Series Land Cruiser is going to fit,
same engine i think from looking at them
the surf a 1989,

I was wondering about this myself, as I have an TLC LJ70 MK2 with 2.4 and need to know if there the same engine, mine doesn't have AC, but I would like to bolt on a AC pump, but use it for a air compressor! also would be good to know from a spares point of view.

They are the same mate, probably just as probable to go pop again!! What cost is involved? you can get new heads for several hundred. At least then you KNOW your sorted?!?

Isn't the block the same but the pump is electronic on the import LC's & Surfs?

Someone will be along to let you know why that was a silly question (in this instance) shortly I should imagine

That, for a couple of reasons, was (in this instance) a silly question.
