If i can secure this DOHC jimny this weekend then yes there will be a twin cam/Isuzu diesel conversion :)

Price wise i reckon will be around the £550 mark for that you will get a new flywheel converter plate and engine mounts to weld onto jimny chassis.

Can you complete in a week i would say yes will be

Engine out
Cut off jimny engine/chassis mounts
Trim and weld in new mounts
fit adaptor plate
Remove y ring gear from Isuzu and sweat new 1 onto new flywheel done in the wifes oven lol
300tdi Rad may be able to supply some mounts as a extra
You need to turn the turbo compressor housing to face north easily done with a couple of spanners
Will look at making a adaptor to connect jimny exaust as an extra but will probably need welding
Then just leaves the plumbing and wiring all very easy with bits of hose from ebay
Plus all the Tech support you need from yours truly :)


Dave could you do me a deal also, my old jimny motor with 110k on the clock is about knackered (40mph flat out).
If you can do it I will source a suitable Isuzu donor motor. Is there a particular spec, engine model I would need to look for? Cheers.
