another thing I have herd of is (I think) there is an Isuzu bell housing that will bolt up to the toyota tranny alowing a stronger tranny and duel transfer cases

One that's rare, but possible, is to mate the Isuzu 3.2L V6 (205 HP) to a Toy R151F or R150F transmission. I'd actually be surprised if anyone with a Toy has done this engine swap yet, but this is how '98 and newer Isuzu Amigos and Rodeos are able to add a Marlin crawler. For more details, ask Marlin himself - who helped discover this oddity, or look in the Isuzu forum here or at 4x4wire. That engine also now has an aftermarket supercharger, with similar performance to the TRD supercharger on the Toyota 3.4L V6.
Here's an archived Isuzu thread at 4x4wire that explains a lot of it. http://www.4x4wire.com/forums/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=264689&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1

And Corbin's '98 Isuzu Amigo with R151F tranny.
Belly Dragger's '98 Isuzu Amigo with R150F tranny.

 

Randy, I may have what you need... I need to figure out what I will and wont need for the toy cases from OTT. I'll keep it in mind for ya.

 

Hmmm, interesting... I dont know if that would work for us though

 

thanks Brent, I am guessing you will need that part though

Try searching this topic...hahaha

I care about your cause! But I can't give you my adapter just yet, I may need it! This could be something promising for sure. I think you'll have to find someone away from the BBS or suzuki knowledge... what your looking for is like a "holy grail" lately.

 

is there even a GM 60 degree v-6 that is worth a $hit??? i mean is there one that doesn't fly apart like the notoriously frail (weak doesn't even begin to describe this turd good enough) GM 2.8?

GM 2.8 engines

can you tell me how thick it is, its ths adapter between the T-case and transmission. Should be 2-3 inches

 

blue zuk, its not my first engine choice thats for sure. It can be built to be a pretty good motor. You can get some power out of it and make it reliable. The parts that might work happen to fit a 2.8 so thats what I got to work with

 

The gm 2.8, isn't that what one of the guys runs in his zook (or buggy now) over at Pirate... a Camaro(sp?) engine?

I'll get the measurements for you this week... I have to dig the tranny out... everything is nice and neat in the shop since I cleaned it and accordingly, it is harder to get to.

 

I do believe that would be DSI hes running the 6cyl out of a camaro in his new rig (buggy)

Thats OK, I'll be home tomorrow and I can look at mine.

 

The part you search for is in my garage. It also contains the park mechanism for the transmission. I can snap some pics for you of the unit, I believe it is taken apart for easy removal. How do you want to get it?

 

ah, finally

! Pics would be great and if you could tell me how thick it is that would be helpful also. I'll PM you...

[/ QUOTE ] are you talking about bacon or when I rolled and messed myself?

 

ZOOK94, did you get my PM?

 

I got the GM 60* V6 bellhousing today. Does anyone have a picture (ZOOK94?) of the back of the tracker bellhousing so I can compare the oil passages. I should have took one when I had it apart but I didnt.
