84 jackaroo engine swap

Post by broken80 »

Hi

A mate has a 84 Jackaroo 4 cyl Petrol with a cooked motor. I was wondering if the motor is the same as the izuzu motor that was in the early gemini's as I have a good motor, they look quite similar.

Any experance?

Thanks

If the jackaroo motor has a steel rocker cover it should have a g200z which is a 2 litre the gemini has a g161z which is a 1.6 litre. you might have to change the sump to clear the diff and the clutch is bigger on the g200z. Those motors are pretty cheap to fix.
