Hello all, I did a quick search for Diesel rebuild shops, didn't find much, perhaps i typed the wrong thing in, any way.

I have just baught a TD42 out of a 95 GQ Ute, i'm looking to get it rebuilt before i put it in the GU to replace the ZD30.

Where should i take the block to get rebuilt? Should i get the head done at the same place or elswhere? Eventually it will go to Andy at diesel tec for a turbo but for now i'll be running N/A until the funds permit.

I'm in the eastern suburbs to preferably somewhere in Dandenong, but really i'm just after somewhere to start and go from there. Sorry if this is a newbie question, but hey, thats what i am, Jumping in head first here and need some help.

Cheers

perhaps talk to andy about, i'm sure he'll recommend someone good.

Failing that, yellow pages?

do you know anything about the condition of the engine?? Being a TD42 theres a good chance you can just bung it in and spend yr money on injectors ? IP ? an of course, your Turbo.
