This kit is designed to mate a Chevy Small Block V-8 to the stock Land Cruiser 4 speed transmission as found on 1974-1982 Land Cruisers. The conversion components are manufactured to provide the best possible engine location with the least amount of modifications. The adapter for mating the stock 4 speed tranny is a simple spacer plate which does not require any special transmission modifications. The engine mounts are made for either bolting or welding into the existing frame rails, can be adjusted for various engine positions, and feature a unique design that provides a positive means of holding the engine to the frame, while cushioning shock and engine vibrations. With these mounts it is impossible to separate the engine from the frame without shearing the bolts. The rear support for the drivetrain consists of a special crossmember that bolts to the back of the Toyota transfer case and extends outward to the frame rails. To install this rear crossmember there will be some welding required due to the large holes in the frame. To position the engine with the proper firewall clearances it is required to relocate the transfer case forward of the original location. This will require drive shaft and floorboard modifications for the relocation of the transmission. The kit also includes a temperature sender adapter bushing that allows use of the original sending unit with the Chevy engine.

It is critical that you use the special clutch assembly we offer. The clutch that we recommend has a very short travel that makes it compatible with the stock Land Cruiser slave cylinder. Failure to use this clutch assembly will result in a situation where your transmission will be nearly impossible to shift. Use of this clutch requires a 168 tooth flywheel for an 11" clutch. The engine can be equipped with either stock manifolds, or the optional headers we offer. Headers are for use on FJ40 only, and will not fit the wagons style Land Cruiser.  This kit is compatible with Chevy in-line 6 cylinder engines simply by changing the motor mounts in the kit at time of purchase for no additional charge. When ordering kit, specify V-8 or 6 cylinder application.

The stock Land Cruiser alternator can be retained by simply changing to the narrow alternator pulley listed. For questions regarding this conversion and other required parts, please contact our technical advisors or email us.
