    It took me about 30 hours of work to actually put the engine together. I have about 100 hours just in cleaning and ceramic coating all the parts. What's time consuming is parts, ordering and waiting for the right parts.

    Yeah, you can pull it with the front ac core and cross member with the right equipment and if you leave the bellhousing on the transmission. It will be going back in with the bell attached. It's a pita, I'll probably pull all that out to put it in though cause the bell is on. I have a hoist...

    Glow screen was replaced by a CNC water-jetted block of aluminum. Vsv has been replaced by a 3 inch throttle body. More airflow. I spent a day cleaning out the engine bay too. It was a greasy mess.

    I bought my Gturbo from PDI in Australia. Not directly from Graeme. Maybe it's a PDI thing?

    New alternator, from national in AUS. It's also internally regulated. So I can scrap the external regulator in the engine bay too. Also is a 120amp.

    So I have around 12Gs into this build now (my wife keeps a tally and brings it up everytime a new part arrives. And that's with me doing ALL the ceramic coating myself. This also includes obscure work like custom fabbing a 3" shut off valve, water to air intercooler parts, custom guage setups...

    I'm actually considering selling the cruiser when I get finished. Wierd, even though this engine will get a half a million miles out if it, I'm kinda hunting around for another to swap a cummins in. Way more supported parts and go faster goods. Or maybe I'll just keep it in the family forever...

    Wanted WANTED: 12HT Complete camshaft and all 6 oil nozzles with the check valve bolts

    I got them. Thanks though. I forgot to update this post. If you got spares, those items are gold.

    Set valve lash on the 12ht tonight. Set it to .010" intake and .016" exhaust. This was setting them cold, most of them were really far out. I'll do another adjustment hot to specs which is .008" and .014" after that first good run.

    Fitted the injector lines on finger tight, to keep the nozzles clean. I still need to get some new injector line mount clamps.
