AFAIK there is not a kit available to put the ford V8 into a GQ . we have done the conversion with a EFI ford 5ltr to the GQ 5 speed . a lot of mucking around but well worth the time. a fair expense aswell as there was a lot of 1 off machining to be done.

Im sure it could be done if you really want to. The transfer case could be mounted off the back of a ford auto or manual gearbox instead.

However the Clevo is a very big engine and the exhuast manifolds would not have much space - there's bugger all space in tehre even for a chev.

Going through the parts catolog for dellow, they do a Ford V8 302/351 into Nissan Patrol 1988 and later models. They also recomend to ask for a detailed fax or email sheet on your model.
