351 in 75 has been done a few times.
Dellow do a kit.
I think Marks do too.

What year is the car?
You might need to run straight LPG to meet emissions.

my ute is a, 85 model 75series ute . the engine is from a 72 fairlane 2v heads, 4bbl intake, 2bolt mains. would it be better to use the ford C4 auto mated up to toyota transfercase or use the toyota box and transfercase?
i need as much info as i can get to make the conversion as painless as possible, i rather learn from others mistakes than mess about spending the hard earnd $$$$ getting someone else to fix it,
cheers hanno

I'm not up on the rules and regs in the NT but am fairly sure the new engine needs to meet the emission standards of the year the car was made.
Straight LPG I'd say.

Ford C4 Vs Toyota 5 speed is up to you... Do you want auto or manual?
I reckon the cost of buying clutch bits would be damn near the C4/Toyota transfer adapter cost anyway.

Talk to the guys that make the kits.
