Wow really 

I get around 500deg just cruising at 110km

The highest I've seen is 750deg

Do not want cracked head. 

I have been considering fmic

1kz run hot as hell stock try stay under 700c post turbo manifold temps will be up round 850c to 900c

Time to mass produce them. I have 4 part started ones

One i made

Could do the math and work it out

Someone will rock up with a 90's honda cbr250rr and pull 20k rpm

Why did you decide top mount over front mount

How much have you spent getting the barn/house to where it is so far?

Agree

Gothca

Bog file ?

Looking sweet

I can't see pick either. I guessing it's a twin charge setup.

The 6bd1t swap has been done before. A guy down south done most of them

So if been a bit slack lately new job moving house and what not so the 60 has just been used as a daily with not much else.

I have decided where this is going.

Swap the 2h anchor out for a 6BD1T(pretty much a Cummins 6bt) intercool and up boost and fuel. Goal is 180whp.160hp flywheel is stock

Re gear the diffs to suit 35s and lock the rear(auto locker) Currently on 32s.

Ute chop is a maybe.

If you go 1kz try find a 1kz-t they are out there.

Imo if your going to the effort of engine swaps I'd put in a td42t. They take a real hiding and no head cracking like a kz

Older trucks putting in some work

6.5k is a mean deal on that.

Convert to spring over and gain all of the heights

That would be so unstable. Mines rolls like a ship in a storm with only 2 inch of lifts. 6-8 would be nasty.

As for rust check the between the seats and doors there is s spot that traps water. Have to lift the carpet.

Also forgot to post this.
