The 1st hard bit is the 4WD sump adapter. THe one I bought from Oz was a shocking bit of engineering and didn't fit. I decided to make my own.
This is about half way through fitting. I got my own blanks cut from the shape of the one from Oz. That was about the only thing that was right.
This is nearly finished. It took ages to make this but it was the best way to do it.
There are a few block mods to do as well, but I've not yet photographed them.
The next tricky bit is the sump. I bought one from RK tuning with metal sump baffles. These are better than rubber ones. The sump need adjusting for the external pickup pipe.
The 1st decision was what pickup to use. Althought the STD head will fit, I opted for a piece 20mm pipe from B&Q. I didn't want to restrict the pipe by putting the strainer gauze over the end so I spot welded the gauze over the gates on the baffle itself.
Here are some pics
