Just seeing if any of you guys have got a 1000 of some sort registered with a CA18DET in it as i have aquired a 1000 ute and would like to put a CA in it. Any help would be great.
Cheers

The power to weight ratio would be the killer here. I doubt it could be legally registered without an engineers certificate & significant upgrades in brakes & suspension. It's got a leaf spring front end. Most states don't seem to allow more than an A14 in them without an engineers certificate. A friend has one in a shed & has plans to put an A15 into it, but I reckon a good torquey A14 would be just as much fun & far simpler to make both legal & safe. I mean they only weight 600 kg's on the rego papers, how much power to you need to make one go quick. Not much.

Is the 4age short enough to clear the springs?
