    Over the last year or so, I've spent a lot of time reading about these engines and their applications in L200/Triton trucks on UK, Aussie, Filipino, Caribbean and New Zealander boards. Not that theoretical knowledge is the same worth that practical experience has. I'd like to think I'm not flying totally blind here (I hope), I'd done homework, but I'm sure everyone would be happy to hear any advice you have to give.

    I'm also not doing a straight swap on a 1st Gen like you did. Is there some issue you've run into with the oil pan that I haven't read about? The only potential issue I've seen is two bolt holes on the oil pan don't quite line up when swapping all the accessories over from a 4D55 on a straight long block swaps. Everything else I've read says it's essentially bolt-in like any Mitsubishi wideblock because the form factor hasn't changed since the 4D55 days.

    There were some issue with fitment when you upgraded the turbo on the brown restoration truck, IIRC, right?
