What year is the new V6 engine you are putting into the old KJ?

I presume you are aware that 05,06,07 engines will not go into a 02,03,04(I think) KJ body without first swapping over the Tone Rings from the older engine onto the newer engine!;)

I do not have lots of data available and no WIFI so have not looked through your videos properly.....maybe you have mentioned this!

OK..good luck fitting a V8....will be an interesting and difficult Project!:)

What part of SA are you in?
I must say, after taking out the engine and doing measurements, it will fit rather well.

Im in Centurion, I see your in White River.
