I like the 12J idea, nice peppy engine, light weight. I think it would make a fun combination

Sounds like a fun project!

I would have said 13B, but seeing as you have one, the 12j would be a great choice as well

I'd love to see this when you're done. How's the project going?

well the motor is finaly in . time to assemble the hilux rear end i just had custom cut. well the motor is a little screeeeeema she revs to 10.000 rpm ive only had it a 9,000 on the dyno and the car was making neary 190rwkw with a final tune it should see the 200rwk mark . the motor built using mfr parts .brand new mfr housings . race beat oil controll and apex seals . custon side seals and mildren water seals. extra dowels gilmor belt drive . race beat dizzy. race beat manafolds nad custom aussie made rotaflow box and extractors. a ex allan moffat radiator and oilcooler up front . custom trans cooler , the engine bay is spotless, i have recently fitted a fuel cell and pierberg and holley fuel pums n filters. the stopping power has been up grades with series 2 rear disks n calipers and volvo 4pots at the front so i can retain the sleeper look with stockies n whitewalls. king springs and koni take care of the susspension side. dual swabar kit at front . the car is awesome to drive , but after this one is finished i have a new project , a 20b powerd 1970s bmw 2 door with 18s i can not wait to do this one
