Hello, a customer has just bought a 99 Nissan Patrol GU and inmediately fell in love with it, what he doesn't like is the lack of power of the TB45E (for something who drives a Porsche or Ford 6.0 Powerstroke as daily drivers) so after looking at some alternatives, and considering that there's already a supercharged 502 Patrol around here, he wants to swap the 8.2 litre, 502 Ram Jet engine on it maintaining the 5 speed tranny, anybody has info on big block swaps? the 502 powered GQ around here has all the drivetrain exchanged so it's not really a clean swap to get ideas from, and after searching the forums most of the engine conversions are for diesel 6.5 V8's, which are smaller than the 8.2 engine. Any help of where to get more info and also some store that has the parts needed for do that swap is gonna be appreciated

Anybody has any contact, or works to, or is a dealer of Marks 4wd? i send them an email with the parts that (i think) i need to do the swap and i want to buy them and get them delivered over here
