I wish you the best with the conversion.

Thanks.... i guess the same could be said for the 1st gen Chevrolet small block, yet many people replace them with late model FI engines. Better power, better drivability, better fuel economy, increased dependability, greater availability of parts, etc... plus i enjoy doing it...

Re: Crash's 1988 Land Cruiser Build

This is a sweet build. After reading the whole thing last time, I had to pull up CL. There is a guy in my neighborhood that flips Grand Wagoneers. I drive by his house on the way home from work every night and have to take a look. I have a feeling one of those is in my future somewhere, with an LS swap. Just have to finish the current one first.

Update from 06/15/14..

Mounted the LS1 Camaro Fans to the Land Cruiser radiator. I used these fans on my 69 Chevy K10 build and they have really worked well.

I really need to get rid of this..

Re: Crash's 1988 Land Cruiser Build

The LS1 fans look like they were made to mount up to the stock radiator.
I really like the new headers too. Those look nice! You made the transfer case overhaul look easy.....
