    I put 4 182 in my wifes old 2 door RRc many years ago, then when she got carpel tunnel in her wrist and couldnt stir the pot with ease, I put in the Borg Warner 35 conversion. It went well, could do 100 kays or more when wound up.
    The engine I bought was out of a Mazda T3000, I think or was it the E 3000. Such a long time ago I forget. But which ever it was it was identicle to the 4 182 Perkins . I have the workshop manual for the Perkins still, and the old engine, and some parts boxes. Some are branded Perkins and some Mazda.
    I had to put a used replacement engine it whan it developed a coolant leak into the oil. I suspected past the liners, not much time then to pull it down so bought another.
    I have been meaning to do something with this engine,. Waiting for an adaptor kit to come up, but I should really look at it first to see it it is any good.

    Reading your post again, the Mazda T 3500 engine is not the Perkins 4-182, so I doubt if the gearbox from the 3500 will fit the 3000.
