are you serious mate? ive been trying to find out if the diesel v8 bellhousing bolt pattern is the same as the 1/2uz and everyone ive asked has said that they are different

well i might be scrapping the bundy idea and try find a cheap 80 series to put the 1uz into using a toyota 100 series bellhousing see if i can find a cheap enough 80 first lol

sorry to bring up an old thread but i was wondering if the 1vd-ftv has the same bellhousing bolt pattern as a 1uz/2uz since here in aus the 2uz came out with a h151 manual 5spd and the new 1vd also have a h151 behind it and since the block configuration is sorta the same and with the starter...

looks like my mate gave me the wrong gearbox but he has one that is apparently right and is from a bundy so ill get that hopefully next week or something and once my bellhousing is here ill be able to start lining things up

ok so ive found out that the gearbox i got off my mate transfer comes out of the center from the rear so my bundy diff (which has a offset pumpkin) is no good for the gearbox..... BUT LUCKILY the other week i found a leaf sprung hilux chassis out the kambalda tip and scored myself the front...
