In Australia an engineer's report is required after the conversion has been completed. Contact your local RTA office for a list of engineers.

The new flywheel supplied in the kit accepts the original Toyota 12" clutch. The flywheel is offset to the rear to place the clutch in its original position. The flywheel has no ring gear and must be used with the original GM flex plate and ring gear. Spacers and bolts are supplied to fix the flex plate to the back of the flywheel.

The engine mounting kit to suit the FZJ7# series Landcruiser consists of engine block brackets which bolt to the original Toyota engine mount rubbers. When using this kit firewall modification is required.

When fitting the 6.2 or 6.5ltr diesel with this conversion kit the GM engine accessories may be used, for example the A/C compressor, power steering pump and alternator. NOTE: The original GM water pump with a single serpentine belt is a reverse direction pump.

Alternatively the Toyota accessories could be adapted to fit the new engine.

Air Cleaner Adaptor

Chevy diesel engines are usually fitted with an air cleaner that looks similar to the type fitted to Chevy petrol carburettor engines. This type of air cleaner will require modifications to allow it to be used with a snorkel. To over come this problem Marks 4WD Adaptors now manufacture a cast aluminium hat that takes the place of the GM air cleaner. The inlet takes a 3 1/2" hose and will fit directly to a late model Toyota air cleaner hose, should you have an early model air cleaner with a 3" outlet a rubber adaptor hose can be used. These parts can be purchased separately or as a complete kit.
