Cummins 4BT Engine/700$4/FJ60-Splitcase

This is a complete running driving 4BT80 conversion take-out. Just about everything you would need to convert your 80 series (or 60 series) to 4BT. Low miles. Everything is either new or rebuilt.

Engine was rebuilt about 4000 miles ago. Serial #44202026. block was machined, new pistons, bearings, etc. Brand new head. New injectors, rebuilt turbo. 3200rpm spring. mechanical fan from dodge. Air con bracket to hold stock 80 series pump.
700R4 transmission. Professionally built with heavy duty clutch packs, heavy duty torque converter, mild shift kit. Has only 1000 miles or less on it.
FJ60 splitcase. professionally Rebuilt with new koyo bearings. Has only 1000 miles or less on it.
Beefy Radiator from Griffin. dual 1.5" cores.
3" intercooler set-up including all connectors and piping and such.
Motor mounts; bread-van liquid filled mounts.

Asking $7500. Located in Stockton, CA

Figure... would cost you...
$5500 for rebuilt motor/turbo
$1800 to build tranny
$600 for adapter
$500 for splitcase
$800 for parts and labor to rebuild splitcase
$500 for griffin radiator (no kidding)
$200 for intercooler
$500 for misc. motor mounts, piping, radiator hoses, belts, air-con bracket, etc.
plus another $500 for radiator, hoses, intercooler/piping, motor mounts, etc.etc etc.?

it would cost around $10k to build this kit. Hmmm, seems high, but... the parts do add up.
Prefer to sell as a kit.
 
Feel like trading for a built Safari turboed setup? :grinpimp:

I've toyed with swapping my entire setup out to do a diesel swap.

No. Seth's had the lame aftercooler set-up. This comes with an air-to-air setup.

What, you think I'm not gonna read this?


:-)
 
I did filter my response and used the word "lame" instead of how I really feel.

The 4BTA would be so much better with its own intercooler.

The one here for sale is air-to-air, mas macho.
 
Why is this being sold? Why was it taken out of the 80 it was in? IIRC you need at least a 4 inch lift to run a 4bt so the oil pan clears the front axel can you confirm? Wil this work with factory engine mounts? Let me know what I need to do to put this in my stock FJ80.
 
Owner of the truck can't make up his mind. He wants a 5-speed and some other fancy stuff.
We did an install with a 4BT at stock height... BUT, we trimmed the oil pan to fit. Otherwise you do need a 4" lift.
You would need a simple motor mount on the frame, looks like this. I don't think we can remove the ones on there without messing them up.
You would need to lift the truck and/or trim the oil pan.
You would need to modify the panhard-bar support.
I can give you a wiring diagram if you have an FZJ80... if you have an FJ80, I'm not sure if it will be the same wires... might be close.
You will need a Dakota Digital tachometer box to drive the stock tach in the gauge cluster.
rear cross member bolts to stock location... I think. Pretty sure.

So, it's more work than just a simple engine remove and replace... but it's way way way less work then trying to do this from scratch.

Is this still for sale? Pm sent.
 
sorry, but i have to shoot you down on that one. due to the number of customers who are in line for swaps, i have decided to narrow my conversions down to the 3 following:
1) toyota diesels
2) mercedes diesels
3) GM vortecs
rather than knowing how to do just about any cruiser engine conversion out there, i've decided to narrow it down to those few so i can get more efficient and knowledgeable at these certain swaps.
sincerely.
