I went out this arvo to have look at a couple of FJ20det's we
tracked down in Melbourne.. both are the 'over the radiator
hose' type, like 'Jake's'... looks like that's what we are getting....
After a trip to a state round of the sports sedans at sandown
recently, we have done an about face on the engine side of
things with our race cars... now going with the FJ's...
So if anybody wants a Z18et complete.. we have a couple
for sale (with engine mounts to fit into a sunny too if you
want them :)
