The engine mounting kit to suit the FZJ80 series Land Cruiser consists of engine block brackets which bolt to the original Toyota engine mount rubbers. The  transmission is moved forward 25mm to help reduce the amount of modifying required to gain enough clearance between the right hand rear coil pack and the firewall.

The right hand chassis bracket must be reduced in length to allow the A/C compressor to fit as shown in this photo. The engine mountings are designed to offset the engine toward the left hand side of the vehicle to allow enough room to fit the A/C compressor. The kit includes a new A/C compressor bracket which has been re-machined to give an additional 10mm of chassis clearance.

The LS2 air compressor is smaller than the LS1 version but the mounting bracket offsets the compressor to far out from the engine block which prevents it from fitting into the Toyota chassis.    

The alternator is then relocated to the top of the engine on the left hand side as their isn't enough room for it to fit in its original position between the block and the chassis. A new re-machined alternator bracket is supplied with the kit along with a new interface bracket and bolts. This is a photo of a relocated alternator on a super charged engine. Note the installation in this photo is in progress and the alternator has been temporarily fitted.

The alternator and A/C relocation brackets supplied in the kit will only fit the long style water pump as found on the LS1 and LS2 Commodore engines up to the VZ model. The VE models and truck versions of the LS1 and LS2 have different water pump offsets. To use this kit on the truck or short water pump version new LS1/LS2 long pump accessories including the harmonic balancer will need to be purchased.

The aluminium truck style rear drop sump is the preferred type for off road vehicles. The sump will require some modification to enable it to clear the steering track rod when the suspension is fully compressed. The pickup will also need to be modified to suit the sump. Marks 4WD Adaptors now stock modified truck style sumps with pickups. The Commodore dipstick and dipstick tube can be used with the truck sump but will require modification.

Marks 4WD Adaptors is designing a new interface to enable the GM computer and Toyota computer to interpret signals from each other, the interface will provide RPM information which is used to calibrate the existing Toyota 6-cylinder petrol tachometer from the Gen3 engine. This eliminates the inconvenience of removing your tachometer from your dashboard to have it re-calibrated. The interface will also provide VSS, water temp, TPS, knock sensor signals, and diagnostic information. The unit will be easy to install and plugs directly into our interface loom.

The kit is also supplied with an oil pressure sensor adaptor, the adaptor is fitted in place of the of the GM sender located behind the intake manifold at the back of the engine block.

A water temperature adaptor is also supplied, the adaptor is fitted in the right hand cylinder head behind the exhaust manifold, it accepts the original Toyota sender.
