Maybe an oversized radiator..? I'll take a look at the other threads.. I like the Lexus V8 idea Jerry! As for intended use I'll be ...

This truck does not have a 2lt it has a 3.4 turbo which i think is a 13b turbo. Thay are a good engine. This would be a good reliable truck. Dare i say it though the safari would probably have a better suspension set up to allow for better flex and with the turbo would easily keep up the the ...
