    I like your choice of engine there! I believe the injected Holden donks are by far the best sounding bent eight around! My previous car had one and I thoroughly enjoyed every drive!

    Try Wholesale Automatics (don't have the number handy but they are google-able) for the transfer case adaptor - they seem to be able to fit anything up to anything else! I got my T700 through them (for my chev) and they are excellent to deal with.

    Cheers

    well im sad to say that after all the research and pricing the conversion wont be happening, the conversion is possible but it is just to far over my budget.
    instead i have ordered one of theseAttachment 33874. also getting sent a zf4hp24 from the same place that they guarantee me will hold up to the power. total price of all the parts ive ordered for the job comes in at $12000. I still would have rathered to the conversion but when the pricing got to $20000 i started looking at other options.

    After just going through the same research exercise also think about Davis Performance Landys at Annangrove in Sydney. 12k installed. He has a version there that you can test drive running petrol and LPG. To be honest more torque and stronger but fir only 400cc you don't get a lot over a standard p38.
    5.0l long from the Uk about 7.5K plus shipping GST and import.
    5.2 long motor from the UK 9K plus shipping GST and import.

    LS1 or LS2 wreckers from a rear end smash about 2-4K plus 3K adapters and then fitting.
    LS2 crate engine 4-6K
    I also bought a P38 locker from a guy with a brand new defender in Wodonga. Open the bonnet and he has ripped the brand new engine out and replaced it with a brand new 6.2L A mechanic who has done the job himself and wow everything down to the steering wheel with paddle sports shift, new dials lockers etc. An absolute gem!
