Eeish Frikke

It's disappointing to hear that someone could make such a hash up of an engine conversion and ultimately give you a bad Hilux experience.

I hope you find someone to help you out, keep us in touch nê.

Go well mate.

The thing about Hilux's is you should be able to buy with BOTH your head and your heart!

A mate of mine in the Midlands had a Lexus put in his 60 series LC by a local mechanic, it was a very nice installation. Don't know how close they are to you but I could get the guy's contact details if it helps.
