i think you will struggle to do any engine swap without an engineers cert. am i right?

depends what you want the car for.. could go for a very simple 5 speed V6 option for a bit of extra power while maintaining fuel economy or go for a efi 8 which would just be insane.

Heaps and heaps of different options so figure out what you want to achieve and go from there :idea3:

im about to get my vh licenced in a few months. originally had a 202 but i bought it with the 253 already in it. should pass the pits easy but unsure also if it needs engineering cert. wouldnt fully think it would need it since it had it as an option

aussiev8 forrum would be able to give you the right light your looking for. people swear by either 253 or 308

id go the injected 5l out of a vn the conversion isn't hard at all into the earlier commos.
have done the conversion on my hj was easy as.
but if you wish to keep it original id stick the 308 in there
anything is going to have a lot more go than a stock 6
2500 should see you through all of the conversion which ever you chose, it just depends on if you want to wait and find the right bargain mate

Mate, go with carby 308, they are easy to put in. With efi50ltr you have a bit more work involved. I think you need a mod plate. I think but i could be wrong!
