Bevos suzuki 2tgeu

Hi to all, I'm fairly new to this place so I thought I'd show you my ride. It's probably not much to you, but I love her. It is a Suzuki sierra with a 2tgeu powering her. Its been a long project since I got it when I was 14 and after the initial out lay I didn't have much money. But I did what I could making as much as I could and doing all the work my self. Which I enjoyed thoroughly, though I made some mistakes. But learnt a lot.
So what have I done you ask well u know about the 2tgeu transplant, but before all that I did a lot of smaller things. The interior left a bit to be desired so I cleaned her out and did some work there, though there is still a lot to be desired inside. Gave her a sound system, roll bars, side steps, slightly bigger tyres (that is all that the old motor could pull). Alloy bull bar, new suspension and shackles, which gave it 4inc lift. Then some ranco rx9000 shocks, a diff lock and heaps of other smaller stuff.
But them came the motor, I had a hard chose deciding what to put in, that would fit, go hard, be strong and not brake the bank. Then this 2tgeu came up for $650, with a gearbox. So I grabbed it and forced it in the small engine bay along with the gearbox. But it was to long. So I had to move the transfer case back with meant remounting it and then shortening and lengthening tail shafts, which was fun. But it all worked out in the end, and really only took me a week of working on it after work, which was not to bad I thought.
At the moment I'm trying to put an efi system on it, because when I go 4x4ing the dual side draft webbers let me down when going up hills, they just don't like it. Plus I'm looking at turboing it or supercharging it haven't decided yet. I'm pressed for room so I was leaning to a turbo but that doesn't give you the power you need down low for 4x4ing.
And I've just scored my self some mags, because those rusty steel things really let the whole thing down. But haven't got them on yet.
Plus I rolled it in the middle of all that, and had to fix it up, now that was a feat. But it came up good, for my first go at bodywork.
Heres some pics.

if you use that ( ´ ) from left side of backspace, it does that or something like that. Use the apostrophe which is left side of the enter button ( ' )

hey this is great, just curious why didn't u fit a 4age instead? Also I would recomend changing your air intake setup, while creative and very compact it would be highly restrictive.
So whats it like on the road?

first with the engine iv herd of a Suzuki with a 4age and wonted to do some thing different and this 2tgeu came up cheep and in good condition. plus i hear there is a lot of 2t-3t junkers that could help me out with any mods. with the air intake it was a stop gap masher. im getting efi for it as soon as the guys im getting it off can get themselves organized and send it. it gos much better now tho im having some trouble with tuning the carbs. but haven't spent to much time on them cus of the efi iv got coming. but the back pot has started missing and getting carbine buildup on the spark plug.

as for tuning u just adjust the mixture screws, the missing could be that one of the jets has come out and its throwing too much fuel down.

well iv all ready cheeked that and i have tuned it with the mixture screws but it doesn't seem to make much difference. it is still running to rich and they are the right size jets and emulsion sizes (apparently). there is spark and has plenty of compression as well so im stumped
