my dad is currently putting a v8 lexcen engine (not sure which model- is all alloy quad cam injected)and 4spd auto gearbox into a 2wd hilux. i am wondering if anyone has done this before or not?? the engine is in the bay..... it has had bits cut out of the firewall, the radiator doesnt fit in... yet. the bonnet doesn't fit either.

To begin with, Unless I'm highly mistaken, there's no such thing as a lexcen all alloy quad cam injected V8... So that's a start.

It's a lexus 1UZ-FE. this conversion has been done by sideshow off these forums and several other people. It would be handy to know what model hilux it is and why there is so much trouble fitting it in.

or go to a dedicated 1uz site/forum
www.lextreme.com/forums
there are heaps of people there (mostly aussies) with hilux' running the 1uz's.
site is jam packed with info and everything you'd need to know for the conversion.
