Hey, why don't ya just do the 2tg conversion like me, seems a bit easier than that, and produces a good amout of power for the 55, it also keeps engine and car in the right era...
I will be writing a full tech article on this for future reference...

On top of what EMP2TG says - I seriously recommend a diff conversion (this will go close to being the single most expensive item of the build).
EMP2TG has done the HiLux conversion (I think) I did the Borg Warner LSD. A well thought out 3T GTE will break stock diffs at will (I wouldn't even consider bringing my 3T on full boost with the stock diff).
