I will say this is a lot easier than an LS swap. It is nice when you just bolt up factory parts

Peace of mind

You mention needing to get AC lines hooked up. Does that mean you were able to find AC compressor bracketry? Where?

I got most of it from Steve at EBI in Canada, and a few parts from Cruiser parts. i ended up with a few extra pieces let me know if you need something. Also ebay au has them as well.

Two test drives complete, so far so good. Maybe a leaky #6 injector but otherwise seems good. Thanks again for Roma, Jim and Cd for answering the phone

Nice Work Bryan. man....it looks bad Ass!!!
And the color of that 60. I just can't get over how great it looks.

 

[mattressking]

Love it. Bay is nice and tidy.

 

[ceylonfj40nut]

Bryan is a beast!!! Gets at it. Quick and clean. Accomplishing both at the same time is formidable. Nice work!!

I need a 2h air cleaner bottom, I used a 62 and didn’t realize they were tilted that much. I have an extra 62 one. I may have to rework the brackets. It bugs me it is tilted like that. 3” stainless exhaust is being installed tomorrow and she should be closer. I have about 25 miles on it and it is fun so far. I also ordered a complete kit too reseal all the injectors. #6 has a drip on the return.

Looks great! I was going to mention the air cleaner looks off but kept reading and you got it covered.

exhaust is complete, relatively quite. I have 65 miles on the truck and the fuel gauge has not moved what an improvement. Really smooth running down the highway at 70-75. Less vibration than the 2f, i have noticed i have to go through 2,3,and 4th alot quicker with 1/3 throttle. what a great little motor.

Punch list items
1. reseal all injectors
2. re-torque all bolts
3. charge a/c
4. wash the truck
5. new wipper arms
6. replace window regulators
7. wash underside of truck

Here she is all buttoned up with about 100 miles on her. In about a week after the holidays I will finish the items and get her detailed.

Need to get a turbo/diesel emblem for the front grill. Or you can leave it a surprise sleeper.
