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 transmission torque converter is coupled to the flywheel via a crankshaft adaptor. The adaptor has the Toyota crankshaft bolt pattern and spigot diameter on the transmission end with the GM crankshaft bolt pattern and spigot diameter on the engine end.

This allows the Toyota flex plate and torque converter to be bolted to the rear as with the old 3F engine. On the rear of the engine a manual flywheel is used instead of a flex plate, as there is no provision to support a flex plate when the starter motor is engaged.

The engine mounting kit to suit the 60 series Land Cruiser consists of replacement chassis brackets, engine mounting rubbers and bolts. The original Toyota chassis brackets are welded to the chassis and must be removed to make room for the new brackets. The new brackets must be bolted or welded to the chassis, if you're not a good or qualified welder we suggest a contract welder do the job.

The new chassis mounts have been designed to give you sufficient legal sump clearance between the differential and the bottom of the engine when used with a standard rear bowel GM sump.

The mount and drives kit have been designed to allow you to reuse the original 3F Land Cruiser power steering pump, air conditioning compressor, alternator, and viscous coupled fan with the small block Chevy engine. All of these components have been fitted in their original positions; the power steering pump on the right hand side uses its original hoses and pulley.

The air conditioning compressor does not require re-plumbing or de-gassing, simply unbolt it from the old engine, and bolt it back onto the new brackets. Note: The Chevy engine driven fuel pump can not be used as the A/C compressor mounting bracket utilises the fuel pump mounting position on the engine block. The alternator is also removed from the old engine and bolted to the left side of the Chevy engine allowing the wiring to plug in without alteration.

The kit comes complete with a new water pump, gaskets, power steering pump brackets, air conditioner compressor brackets, alternator brackets, aluminium crankshaft pulley, fan pulley adaptor, top and bottom radiator hoses, fan belt, A/C drive belt, power steering drive belt, all bolts, washers, nuts, clamps and instructions. NOTE: This kit should only be used with the MFK1260 engine kits, the reason for this is the MFK1260 kit is approximately 2" shorter than the MFK560 kit, the shorter kit allows plenty of room for the Chevy long water pump and the Toyota Viscous coupling and fan.

Marks 4WD Adaptors now manufacture a new interface designed to calibrate your existing Toyota 6-cylinder petrol tachometer so that it can be driven from your V8 Chevy or V8 Holden engine. This eliminates the inconvenience of removing your tachometer from your dashboard to have it re-calibrated. The unit is easy to install and only requires a connection to the ignition coil, tachometer wire, earth B- and ignition B+.
