That engine has the USA style EPA tag on the rocker cover. It might be a 12 volt US import.

4BB1 is 3.6 Ltr. The old man has one in the shed. He was dissappointed when I told him it was not 3.9 4BD1 :(.
Cheers,

Arn't the 4BB1's still a good donk? I've heard many say they are very happy with them (and they rev a bit more too).
I thought they are a 3.3? 4bE1 is a 3.6. 4bb1 may just be an earlier generation.I think they were fitted to the old TLD model trucks and the 4BE1 came out with the Second generation NKR and NPR.
I know for a fact that the 6BB1 is the same bore as a 6BD1, just shorter stroke. lots of parts are shared.
Then, lots of parts are shared between the 4BD1 and 6BD1 so I suppose it's the same deal again with 4BD1 vs 4BB1?

Nice series swb with isuzu engine and gearbox.
Yep, went and had a look at it today, very nice truck. Guy has owned it 15years, new pistons, liners etc 70k ago. Took it for a good 15 min drive. Steering was pretty heavy with it not being power and the extra weight of the isuzu but other than that it was spot on.
I really need more of a daily drive otherwise I would have bought it myself!
