We can probably both agree that neither is a good choice for a 98 Jackaroo with a dead Isuzu V6
Yeah, go the 3.5, its easy & cheaper than any other option I would say & its not a bad angine anyway, Im surprised it has expired.

The 2.8 diesel is mechanical, I'm sure the 3.1 diesel can be made mechanical as well.
First time I've heard a commodore V6 called economical too.
Drove a V6 Commodore on a country trip and it was getting 8 litres per 100 km. That is economical.
