Hi All,
I have a 94 modal 80ser 4.5l all wheel drive and I want to put a 2 wheel conversion in can anyone recommend a brand and type to install and any pros or cons in doing so.
I have been looking in to installing a Hiclone
http://www.hicloneqld.com/ to increase fuel economy and increase power any feedback on this would be great.

Hi Mark, Try Marks 4WD Adaptors, they make 2WD conversion kits for the 80s. Find them at
www.marks4wd.com
About the Hyclone, don't waste your money, they don't work and when you think about it they can't work. Any "cyclone" effect induced up stream of the throttle body will be long gone once past the throttle plate,(usually only partly open) through the plenum (designed to smooth the air flow) down one of the six runners, stuck behind the valve until finally let into the cylinder.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Alan.

I also used marks 4wd adaptors kit, and best thing ive ever done!!! Although if your gonna drive it hard off-road ditch the AVM hubs that come with the kit in favour of some factory Aisins off a 75 series ute, Troopy, 60 series or pov pack 80. Hiclones are about as useful as an ash tray on a motorcycle.
