Sigma 4G54 2.6 into a 84 L300 4WD

Post by CAD »

Im rebuilding my 84 L300 Express 4WD. It comes standard with a 1.8Ltr.
I have bought all the gear to throw in the Sigma 4G54 2.6ltr Engine.
Inlcluding extractors, engine mounts, sump etc.

The van body was riddled with rust, so ive cut the body away from the chassis and ive purchased a good 2WD body to use when im ready.

Im taking the exsisting 1.8ltr out as well as the old 4 spd manual and replacing it with the Astron 2.6ltr and a 5spd box. Ive sourced a TP Magna radiator, because its much larger (plus the radiator hoses will be longer, thus more water) and relocated it to the bullbar for extra room and im adding a 50mm lift kit to the body as i want to install the EFI setup from a TR Magna (Intake manifold, plenum, computers and loom, EFI head, distributor etc) and i want the body to clear the new engine.

Im hoping to post up some pics real soon, but at the moment it dosent look like much. Has anyone swapped the heads on the original Astron before to a later model TR EFI head? any tips for me?

Thanks guys ill keep ya's posted!
