Gotta ask since I don't know - what's the diff between 'long' and 'short' block when it comes to 1hz/1hdt type diesel motors for 80's?
Short block: block and internal rotating assembly.
Long block: short block + head.
Toyota does manufacture and sell 1HZ long block assemblies.
I wonder if Toyota sells complete 1hdt or 1hz motors at all (ie. ready to install and prepare with fluids, etc.) or only the short and long block assemblies?1HDT short blocks were also still available when I checked last year. I think around NZD$8k before any haggling. Cheaper than a rebuild.
Long motors are all that was ever available, as there are part numbers in the system, 19000-17142 for 1HDT.I wonder if Toyota sells complete 1hdt or 1hz motors at all (ie. ready to install and prepare with fluids, etc.) or only the short and long block assemblies?
Someone with access to the actual EPC not ToyoDIY or Japan-parts would be able to work it out.Seems there are multiple versions - 19000-17140 up to 19000-17144 - and Amayama gives me A$ prices around $16k.
1hz seems to be 19000-17420 and 19000-17141 for the similar config using 1997 as the target year in Toyodiy.
About the same pricing quotes - A$16k.
It's hard to know if those p/n's are correct as the 'engine' page shows petrol and diesel motors with the same '11000' over-arching part category code.

In any case it's kind of pointless. You'd have to spectacularly destroy an engine to need the additional bits that the long motor gives you over the short block. Most people would be swapping the timing case etc over onto the short block.
Unless of course you've destroyed the head too.
Is there a searchable part-number for 1hz long block assemblies? 19000-17421 seems to be a short block assembly (for a later year hzj80)? Was or is there a searchable p/n for the 1hdt just out of interest? I'm aware 1hz is still in production but I don't think 1hdt is.Short block: block and internal rotating assembly.
Long block: short block + head.

It's over 690 k km's now. The head has one missing piece where a section at an exhaust stud hole with very little casting around where the stud goes has cracked off but otherwise it's the same head that was on the motor when I got the 80 12 years ago with 505 k km's on the odometer. I've never had it off the block. I did shims and t-belt tensioner + t-belt + water pump myself at 600 k km's.At 600,000km his head likely needs refreshed.
Emissions and efficiency laws have prevented selling new vehicles with 1HZ engines across the first world, but there are plenty of countries where new 70 series Landcruisers can still be ordered with 1HZ engines, primarily parts of Africa and Central and South America. According to a manual I'm looking at, that includes Jamaica, Mozambique, Papua New Guinea, South Africa, Algeria, Costa Rica, Egypt, New Caledonia, Panama, and undoubtedly many more in those regions which share the same package models. That's just end consumers though. If you're a large mining company, government, aid agency, other multinational NGO, or probably an aspiring local warlord, you can order new 1HZ equipped 70 series cruisers to your requirements through Toyota Gibraltar Stockholdings (TGS) - 4x4 vehicles for aid agencies - https://www.toyota-gib.com. And even if not, there are plenty of places worldwide that specialize in customized new rigs, which will buy an available 70 series model and drop a 1HZ crate engine in for you, which are the go-to for some places like your smaller mining operations where you don't need crazy volumes. Through arrangements like these, 1HZ equipped Landcruisers are still used in many first world countries, including Australia and Canada at least, and I'm sure many others. These vehicles may not be legal at all to drive on the public roads in these countries mind you, but if you're a mining company or NGO, again there are ways and means through local laws if you're using them for government approved purposes.which markets are 1hz's still made for out of interest? Here in oz they aren't sold in any new Toyota's unless the Coaster mini-bus still uses that motor.
