ok i have got a tb42 patrol and want to change it to a td42. what i want to know is what i need to do the transplant i already know i need a bell housing, fueltank, lines ect but any help with the finer things would be great. i have a complete engine available to me and wiringloom from the diesel. thanks in advance.
ok i have looked into it further and have got on to vic roads and they say that i have to have a enganeers report done. has anyone done this in vic and what did you have to do to get it on the road?

when i done mine i didnt have to change any lines to the tank. or the tank itself. only thing i had to modify there was the filler neck and all i did was knock the restricer flap out. not it easily handles hiflow bowsers no dramas. didnt even need to swap senders.
bellhousing is different. rad is different,
i swapped the whole wiring harness to the diesel one from under the passneger seat to under the engine bay. lines matched straight up for me. then just swapped everything over.
i had another car though when i done mine. so made it real easy. only other issue i run into was engine mounts. but there is NO need to stress if the chassis is a 2 bolt style and the engine is 4 bolt style or vise vesa. just swap the brackets on the engine to the other type and hey presto. it bolts up.
its a real easy conversion if done right and mine looks very much factory so you would hardly know. even the exhaust will bolt up if you dont have extractors on her. in which case just swap the extractors over to the td42 and she will be roses.
