I've read through a few threads on this conversion and sent an email to David @ Isuzudieselswapper.com but still have a couple of (stupid?) questions, as I am not very familiar with GM drivetrain:

If I purchase the GM 700R4 adapter kit from the website above, will I be able to attach an NV4500 to the Isuzu? Would this require another adapter kit (something like Advance Adapters' NV4500-to-Chevy V8 kit) in order to work? Ideally, I'd like to attach the Isuzu to the NV4500 to the Toyota transfer case.

Thanks for any insight - I am currently planning my next project, which will be a Land Cruiser. I had to sell my half-completed FJ40 restoration nearly 10 years ago to return to college and am just now completing an Isuzu diesel conversion (2.8l diesel into 1988 Trooper - www.dieseltrooper.blogspot.com), so the Isuzu-powered cruiser is a natural for me.
