Thinking of buying a Cruiser 105 with Chev

Post by create »

I am thinking of buying a Landcruiser 105 with a 6.5 Turbo Chev diesel and LPG injection. Its done 285,000km. 105,000 on the diesel engine. What are these conversions like? How many more km's will I get out of the engine and vehicle? Whats the economy like? Any thoughts welcome.

try doing a search.

The Chev diesels get a fairly regular shit-canning on here.

People seem to either love them or hate them, seems the guys that love them cant see past the V8 exhaust note :lol:

Check who the conversion was done by, If it was brunswick my opinion would be don't touch it from past experiences.

Might be a weird question but did the owner by a Turbo Diesel Cruiser to replace it ?
