Just buy an HDJ81 and sell your current 80.

How down to the south? If you get here I'll swap it myself and could even put a manual on it also

So far one, because over here there are all diesel...a guy brought his from somewhere up there and I changed it to diesel...at the time could only get a 1HZ engine, the tranmission is a modified H151F, as it has 5th gear and 1st gear out of a coaster thus giving it an amazing cruising speed and a very strong 1st gear...we kept his transfer...some other person went and changed an LX450to a 1HD-T, but I think that should not be, as a Lexus is all about the comfort and almost no sound, with a diesel you get sound ...

one other thing...not sure if you have noticed, but I am down south, meaning, passing Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, CostaRica and finally reaching Panama...so...as I always say, better to get an engine here and ship it over, you coud get a brand new engine (if you know how to assemble it as it comes in two half) for a good price,,,and it would be a drop and go kind of thing

So, you're saying that one can get a 1HD-T or 1HD-FT and have it shipped to USA from Panama for a conversion project?

 

[panamacruiser]

No, 1HZ or 1HD-T not 1HD-FT
