I just wanted to make sure that I am correct in thinking that a A14 or A15 will be a straight swap with the 1200 engine in a 120Y. So no issues with gearboxes, electrics ect.
Lastly does anyone else know of any other engines that will be a very straight forward swap.
I have a mate who can sell me a SR20 N/A with manifolds, computer, wireing loom. In need of a crank rebuild for $250.00 But by the time I have paid for the crank rebuild gearbox & other mods needed I dont think its going to work out so cheap.
So I am thinking about a easier conversion.
Ps if anyone has a engine that would be a easy conversion let me know, I have cash waiting.
Thanks
Andy

A14 / 15 will bolt straight in same box same elects there an easy conversion as for sr theres heaps 2 consider such as bigger brakes diff gearbox fuel pump electrics cooling mounting it can get costly. But the sr will go pretty good. If ur intrested i have a a15 with 4 speed i want $1100 for. It all depends on what ur after a sr will take heaps more work but will perform heaps better. In saying that the a14/15 can go pretty good if built right

Stanza a10 engine xmember I think that the right one will bolt straight into a 120y and will allow you to run an L series with minor wiring and I think you can get a gearbox that bolts in to! There heaps of info on ozdat ect

Ok thanks for that, I wonder how much freight would be to get your engine & box to QLD.
Any more info on your A15?

Just bumped my post have a look at that mate. As for post no idea.

Your engine looks good, your price is at the top of my budget. But im expecting once the freight is taking into account its going to bump the price up to over what I wanted to spend. :(

Lol yea post will do that. Surly theres one up there somewhere u could pick up. Depends on how long u can wait for 1 to pop up. Or maybe as said be4 u could do a l series motor which would prob / maybe fit in ur budget. Im not sure on price of that conversion but heaps of ppl have done it so im sure u could find out pretty easy.

Suggestion. Get the 120y on the road as is first then you can do stuff to it and its regoed. Just suggesting, based on my experience and what you've just been through with the Ute.

lol yea that is the plan Andy, im going to get it on the road first. Its just that I have come into some spare cash which doesant happen often around here, so I am planning on picking up a engine now while I have the spare cash and depending on the condition rebuilding that and eventually putting it into the 120Y.

something wrong with your current a12?
do as suggested get it on the road then look out for a cheap L series powered car or start collecting L series gear.
L series can fit
Many types of L series heads
Z18et 8V SOHC crossflow
Ka24de 12v crossflow
Ka24DE 16v crossflow
Na20P 8v crossflow

A very versatile platform
