[@TJANDMAC]

Thanks ! Yeah can’t wait to get it out and use it 🤩

[@Morphic-Realms.]

Nice build Tj... Jhh machined my 4m40t back in the day, I did pretty much the same type of build on it, shafted the balance shafts and balanced the motor, ported the head and turbo also, then added water meth injection..... (don't forget that ;)

[@TJANDMAC]

Haha sounds spicy ! Yeah can’t wait to take this thing for a strap 🤩

[@IDontTalkToCops]

Love it. Great build. Gives me inspo for my ln106 build.

[@TJANDMAC]

Awesome 🙌 thanks mate

Crazy that stock toyota main cap studs are as strong as ARP studs 😮 Just goes to show why toyota is what it is

[@TJANDMAC]

Yeah Nick certainly knows his stuff hey!

Been waiting all day for this!

[@TJANDMAC]

Hahaha well here we go 🤩

[@snowy6453]

The 1kd is an awesome engine, mines just hit 512,000ks so it’ll probably get the kaizen rebuild treatment soon 🤙

[@TJANDMAC]

😂 be rude not to throw a few extras on ey 😝

[@jasonpomfret4279]

Awesome episode guys, you guys opened up my knowledge to the legends at kaizen fab, I'm about to order full rebuild kit and turbo upgrade from Nick. Nice 1 legends

[@TJANDMAC]

Ahh that’s awesome Jason ! 🤩

[@dirtmonkey4x435]

Now I want another LN106. Mine was a great 4x4, but just so slow. Problem solved. Great work to everyone involved.

[@TJANDMAC]

Yeah this will certainly solve that problem! Haha thanks mate 🙌

[@ttecsolar2846]

Fully sick bro

[@reubend340]

In the same boat as you Macca. Been a sparky for years, working for my self, but have always loved engines. Been playing with them since I was 12 and still would love to get into them a lot more than I do now. Keen to see how the 3litre goes for you. Only thing I don’t like is that the fuel lines are under the rocker cover. Don’t know you have a leak until the engine runs away from too much diesel leaked into the oil. But not a common issue.

[@macpreston]

Ah bloody oath! I definitely will man up one day and have a crack! They interest me so much! And the fealing of making sweet horse power after would be so rewarding!

[@RangerDanger720]

I was expecting that. You should do it on the lc60 as well.

[@TJANDMAC]

Not a bad idea 🤩

[@forgottenknowledge8917]

You guys should into old TDI engines. They are very similar to a small Cummins with lots of torque.

Good to see TJ helping out pulling out his motor......😅

When is part 2 coming out since I want to do a 1-KD swap to my hilux surf from a 2LT just like you

[@darlingtonchimutu8390]

2LT to 1KD yoooooooooooo what a Jump

[@grayham3368]

Are you going to do a episode of the old engine pull down? Would be keen to see the damage of it

[@TJANDMAC]

Uncle pooly probably will 😎😜

[@beckhemful]

U guys should check out 15BT 4.2cc

[@Mr.Engineer.]

So, you are telling me that the 2L block and the 1KD block has the same bolt pattern or do you need a 1KD specific bell housing?

[@HazzadFab]

This is sick! Does the old hilux gearbox bolt up to new engine/bellhousing?

[@TJANDMAC]

Mine was an auto with the A340 so yep, bolts directly up no mods needed 💪

[@mitchellholroyd2837]

Is everything balanced and all that good stuff? Its not a ls with a turbo though. Lol

[@KDBockman2002]

It's probably the most coolest Ln106 out at the moment. Is there an update coming?

[@TJANDMAC]

Yep Just taking longer than expected But not to far off 😎

[@smsd777]

Nice one! Beat me to it in my 4Runner. Standard sump/ pickup work for solid axle?

[@macpreston]

Good choice! You could highly modify it, however a 1KZ rear sump is the easier option and also needs a trim for maximum up travel! The boys will have all this available as a conversion once tjs is finished to!

[@TG.34295]

🤘

[@hawk3356]

These 30 minute videos are the shit. So much better than 3 10 minute videos with not much going on

Yeah it’s totally working, so nice to watch something start and finish in the same episode. Understand it would take so much longer to film and edit but it is definitely better!

What kind of wheels and tires spec donyou have? Thank you

[@TJANDMAC]

KMC Grenade 17s -38 🙌

[@mikex4941]

A 1KZ would be more straightforward to swap (and cheaper to maintain due to being an indirect injection), given that Surfs already featured the 1KZ OEM in the 92-95 models, but the better power and fuel economy of the D4D 1KD is nice too.

[@TJANDMAC]

Yeah it’s certainly going to be a step up power wise 💪

[@darcykeddell4930]

1kz are crap so kd is the go

[@mikex4941]

[@macpreston]

Ah bugger! Yes its actually a 92 model toyota surf that has been cut down into a ute! I beleive this is why it has a 2.4 2lte as its a surf not a ln106!
