Hi there,
I recently bought an 1980 FJ40 here in Chile. It has an original (slow) diesel, and I now can get my hands on as well a 3,5, 3,8 or a 4,5 Merc V8 engine. The obvious question is, has anyone ever done this before? Preferebally in a way that the original gearbox still can be used.
Any info would be very welcome.
Cheers,
Dutch Alex
