Cool.
I've got D1 manifolds and they were a very tight squeeze. I still have the original manifolds however.

Re: Ebay again
looks like it's been in dry conditions too. So it is probably a good base for a rebuild.

Re: Restoration
Good to see you're up and at 'em again. Life's twists and turns are often not predictable.
I think I'd use a metal heater pipe under there, but I'd also work out how I'd mount it with rubber wrapped clips otherwise you might find the vibration causing problems.
Good luck

Re: some exotic Stage 1 in Germany
I have never before seen an engine rebuilder use filler like that. One hopes that the bolt heads are tightened to correct specs.
We would not normally use gaiters in this part of the world. Mud, grit, and water can get trapped inside and cause rust and pitting on the balls.

Re: some exotic Stage 1 in Germany
I had similar problem. My PTO is a front facing Thomas chain drive from the top PTO output. It reaches down toward the chassis rail and intersected where the exhaust wanted to go. Some hammering and welding was required to get it to fit, but it also hits the cross member from time to time as a resul...

Re: some exotic Stage 1 in Germany
The 8000lb Thomas is great. That is what I have on mine, converted to PTO drive from electric.
The misalignment for the exhaust is not surprising given the lower PTO was designed for the One Ten Perentie conversion. But that rear output is a real rarity alright. Well done getting it.

Re: some exotic Stage 1 in Germany
Yes, the Perentie is military grade. It also meant that to have a PTO winch, they needed to make the lower PTO output. It makes for a lot to be running off the engine. I imagine too that the Perentie design allows for more movement and articulation and not just weight carrying. I actually thought ai...

Re: some exotic Stage 1 in Germany
This is great reading. It's good to see that the HCPU went to a good owner.
The driveline is very interesting. Quite different to the way Perentie did it.
Do you have the air bags?

Re: ISUZU 3.9 IN U.K
Cheers. I am guessing your only option will be to enquire with Vanuatu, but good luck with that. The state infrastructure is at times quite inefficient and ineffective. It will be impossible to know how many were imported to the UK because they would have been private deals. Official export records ...
