Is there anyway I can check to see if the head will fit without having to pull it down (ie engine numbers etc)??? My manual shows the "pear" type over both inlet/exhaust valves but I am still un sure. At worst I will do a straight engine swap after I do a bit of work to it if that is the case. Will the earlier model RT142 22RE bolt up to my 94 Hilux??? Does it matter if the motor had an auto behind it??
As for the turbo you are right about none of them finding their way to australia in that configuration. But if this RE will work I will look at after market turbo and even perhaps a cam and chip.
I was going to got the 1uzfe option but there is to much to work in changing diff ratios....bady lifts etc. This way I keep everything relativly standard and hopefully get about 100+ kw once it is all sorted.
