Apart from the bellhousings, are there any other differences between the V8 and isuzu versions of the County LT85? Is the input shaft the same?

Cheers

I have one from a petrol County behind my Isuzu. Input shaft was shagged on the original (and much else).

Thanks for the panic attack !!!

When I read that, & after scraping myself off the ceiling I went down to the garage, unpacked the input shaft for a V8 I bought - part no FRC 7852- it cost me about $180.00 from pommyland & dug out the - slightly damaged -Isuzu input shaft its going to replace and to my great relief- they are identical.
Phew...

So the V8 and the isuzu input shafts are the same?
