No. You can make your 2F run just fine at 6,500'. I got around Denver with a '73 Aisin carb and an FJ60 big cap dizzy (advanced quite a bit) on a 2F block.
Starting the build back process or atleast the "remove the damage" process. Youngest mancub and I started pulling pieces and parts off the ole girl this weekend. Cleaned her up a bit and took her for a quick ride just around the neighborhood...
Mavis hauled her first trailer load today!
We have finished our barn, so a bunch of barn finishing items need transport as well as the items in storage moved to the barn. That little trailer goes down the road pretty good, especially if I keep...
This week's episode is live now. I talk to Chris Merritt about how a trip with his brother to SAS 5 inspired him to get a 60. That inspiration turned into SAS 8, GSMTR, the Carolina Relic Run and other epic events.
I can’t disagree with you @White Stripe. There are a few well versed buyers out there and these folks are trolling the shallow and deep waters. This 40 is for a serious discriminating buyer/collector. A museum piece….

This is a 6 figure 40 in my opinion. I doubt bring a trailer bidders will understand the difference between a 20 footer SA painted 40 and yours. I don't have an explanation for saying that other than its just a gut feeling. I hope you get what...

Answering my own question... this might be what I am looking for: EGR Intake Inlet Block Off Plate Kit for 1980-1987 Toyota Land Cruisers with 2F-Engines - Landcruiser Parts -...
Jesse (and all), try this simple test. Put your feet about 16" apart (maybe more if your balance requires), lock your knees, and do a little hop. Just a couple of inches, nothing big. You will feel the jolt transfer straight through to your neck...
The shackles in my photo are made and sold by me.😊 I happen to think they are superior shackles because they are adjustable width. And anyone who has dealt with more than one Landcruiser suspension knows that spring width and bushing shoulder...
Engines. Many options. Easy/Simple is a chevy 350 carbed. Mine has one behind a 3 spd on the floor. Its wicked. Does 80 mph all day! Love Toyota engines. But this one gets my grubby hands over them most days.
The 2F engine was designed to make useable torque at low rpm, it makes 80% of its rated torque not far above idle rpm. Great for for four-wheeling, its intended purpose. With enough time and money, you can increase hp but it's an uphill battle...
