Why would you bother with that when you could put in a V6 for a lot less hassles..

Dellows sell a kit for a 186 into a hilux. Even though the v6 would be a million times better I think the v6 would be a bigger hassle.

was just wondering about the 186 as i will have it from another project very soon, and i paid nothing for it, its also significantly worked. i was thinking as it isnt nearly as big of an increase it would possibly not need as many cooling issues to be adressed, however i was just seeing some replys
