the lean is standard. when i bolted my age up to my 3sp auto, i made the flange on the auto sump sit level, when i did this it sat the motor on a slight lean.

i used 70x35 rhs for the brackets, they were welded to a 4mm plate and bolted to the engine block. i used engine mounts from an f series holden.

all of it was custom done to get the engine to line up properly.

should be fun when your done.

i read a up a little on people using the 7afe block and bolting on a 4age head creatinga 7age.... 1.8l twin cam... more torque and usable power.


anyway good luck with your build.

would be a good idea to post this in members so everyone else who has not yet see the light of zooks can drool at it! keeps everyone happy too!

Really? I don't remember this from my 4age zook, or are you talking gze's & auto's only?

yeah except it doesn't work..
you end up with something around 7.0/1 compression and no power..

good for turbo or supercharging but still to low!

when i set up my motor and box bolted together, i set the front crank bolt and rear gearbox output at the same height from the ground making it level north south.

i used a level to make the auto sump flange sit level east west.

when i did this it sat my engine on a slight lean.

i wanted to have the auto sitting correctly.


but in saying all of this, when driving trails when is the zook ever going to be level :?

well if i go ahead with the rest of the conversion i will have to upgrade to hilux diffs ect.. so i have come up with another idea which will still use hilux and suzuki parts but will allow me to run a much larger capacity motor. But i need to get rid of the 4agze and rwd box first or the mrs will kill me
