Hi Im looking at converting the 2lte engine that i currently have into the 1kzte does anybody know if this is possible also if it has been done what would be involved i was thinking of changing the heads but dont know anything about these engines but dont have the mony to drop in the lexus v8 that i would like to so was going to make do with what i had but try and rebuild it in to the big brother engine that is so well known.

by converting do you mean doing an engine swap?? what 4wd is it in?

Completely different engines, so no you can't bastardise either.

Either buy a 1kzte, a new head for your 2lte, or, seeing as you were looking at the 1UZ, put a 3VZ-E into it, which should be largely a bolt in job as its a factory fitted engine in some models.

so would the 1kzte bolt up to the 2lte transmition that i have in my auto hilux surf

hey mate did you try it im looking at doing the same thing

Hey,

Have a look around the Aussie Surf Forum (try the engine conversion section) and see what you can find
