Man, I've been waiting years for this! I think it's a great motor and a perfect fit for using in the 80s. Excellent job, by the way!

Father's Day came early for me. Here's what my kids got me. Even comes with a shipping container.

Did anybody else besides me stare at this for a long time and build at least three or four cruisers out of that?

Cool build, dude! Can't really tell how that rear dump exhaust manifold clearance look? Having put a 5.3 in an 80 with an electric fan, I had lots of problems with it. Ended up putting a clutch fan in it, and it cooled a hell of a lot better.

Having done a few of these, it just really depends on what you are really after. If you're a purist, be pure. If not, go for what you want. Just to provide you a left turn on what you're trying to do, my next project will be an FJ60 on an FZJ80 frame with a tuned Duramax 2.8 liter 6-speed auto...

Cool! Back in the day, I bought a 2000 for $3,500. 180k and it showed it. The only thing we did to it is a starter, timing belt, and a rack and pinion steering. It drove great.

Wow, what a nice ride!

Hey Guys, I injured my eye today. Not bad but enough where I can't drive right now. Catch up with y'all on the next one.

I'm in. Looking forward to seeing everybody.

Man, I wish I had the money. Bump for a nice rig!

What about a drop receiver? I have one I am not using any more. $20. Used twice.

You can work in some 16 or 18 guage flat stock.

Hey Folks, I'm researching my next build and I'm planning on a 2.8 Durax that is tuned to 220hp / 440tq. With that level of torque, I seem to not be able to find any specs on max torque of land cruise transfer cases. I was think of going with a FJ62 case converted to FJ60 shifters. What do...

Speaking of diesel swap, how much torque would the transfer case take? A 50hp tuned 2.8 duramax will put out a 444ft/lbs. If I remember correctly, an FJ60 tcase will handle up to 350ft/lbs.
