Troopy conversion - 3.8L V6 Ecotec with 4L60E automatic transmission

[dadinabarrel]

Got a little project on the go, my gearbox is on it's last legs and I have a dodgy foot so I'm pulling my manual box and 1HZ turbo out of my HZJ75 and putting in the 4L60E auto trans and 3.8L V6 Ecotec out of a VT Commodore in it's place.

Is there anyone else out there who has done this conversion?

Clearly no one was interseted in this one!

That's ok, I got over it as well, I decided to stay with toyota, I'm now fitting an A440F landcruiser auto transmission behind my 1HZ Turbo. So far, I'm looking at about $5,000 finished using all my own labour so I hope it's worth it. I'll post it all when I'm done.
