Hi, I've already done 2 fj40 engine swaps and now have an fj60. I want to keep the original engine, but don't know the best options for max power/torque and gas mileage.
I know I'm not going to get a lot of extra speed thats not really what I'm after. I'm really looking for reliability that won't break the bank (does that ever happen?).
This is my first 2F rebuild so any advice would be helpful.
This is what I have in the plans for the immediate future....
H55 Tranny
32/36 Carb for max fuel effeciency
Header
Electronic ignition from JT Outfitters
Duel electric fans-trying to reduce any engine load possible
Stock engine rebuild kit from JT Outfitters
Transfer Case rebuild kit
New HD Clutch
Cat Back exhaust
New Coil
New PS pump-current leaking like crazy
Mostly I'm worried about rebuilding this engine and still having leaks everywhere. I've been told it's almost hopeless to get these things real tight.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can give me. Brad
