Yep, 4k will buy a lot of extra fuel for the 2F, but it's in need of a rebuild so there's 2k gone. There ain't terribly much you can do (as far as I know) to get much economy or power out of the 2f. By he time I did the basics, cam, extractors, carbie, there isn't gunna be too much money left over ...

I was thinking along the lines of the 4.0L Ford because it has 348NM of torque and around 150KW in stock form. The engines are cheap and parts are easy to get as well as being a much more economical engine ...

Cost of Engine Conversion
G'day, I am tentatively considering replacing the 2F in my FJ60 with a EB Ford Motor (4.0L EFI Straight 6). I can pick up a motor with loom and all the bits for around $500.00 and a conversion kit for around $1300.00. I won't be doing the work myself but I think I can get the labour done fairly ...
