      this is creepy i literally asked for this exact swap 6 days go, on the 4x4 adventure film... also take care of that engine.. there are m15a with same compression as the m13a in the jimny, bit i think you may have an m15a from an ignis/swift sport there, wich has 11-1 compression instead of 9-1

      Yeah, I expected him to say at least a 2 liter. It also slightly perturbs me that they say "big block" when the block is physically the same size. We say "Small Block Chevy" and "Big Block Chevy" because the blocks are physically different sizes. You can have a 400 cu in small block, and a 396 cu in big block. It's got nothing to do with displacement, but physical block size.

      That Intro was great, I love 4WD 24/7 from here in the US. Love the difference in the driving styles, terrain, and builds. Not so much the build vids cause they're not too useful to me. Funny how big Aussie channels say 33's are big and tackle crazy terrain and 35's are huge, while over here 33's are on every Mall crawling Jeep, and now if you don't have 40's youtubers are like "Built rigs only, you need 42's" 😆 We're all about LS swaps, Aussies got the diesels. Would love to see a series where a typical US and a typical Aussie channel get together and wheel in both countries! I can dream.

      @@Wooskii1 your big builds won't fit on most of our tracks...
      LS swaps are pretty common on y61 patrols and 80 series cruisers.
      As for the 35s vs 42s, we have legislation preventing that. Generally speaking, in most states you can only add 2" to the overall diameter. As most 4x4s here cam factory with 31s, 33s are the common size. Beyond than you need to have an automotive engineer sign off on the bigger wheels and lift, and even then 35s are the upper limit of what they can approve.

I have a friend who bought a $90k 4x4 and the first time he took it "off road" a stump tore into his sidewall. It took him over an hour to get the spare on and he turned right around and back onto the street. Cost him $250 for a new tire and he never went "off road" again.

      But a m16a of off a swift sport or even the sx4 and so on would have fit too! And is cheaper and more powerful.
      Sorry but you guys just did the one swap that is not worth it in my opinion. Yeah it has a bit more torque and power, but 700 dollars isn't that much cheaper then a m16a with around 130hp.

    Okay, so realistically that glaze will come off with regular heat cycles with good oil and low mileage oil changes. Similar story for the coolant and those grungy looking coolant passages.
    Do 500kms and change the oil and filter, then do another 2500kms and it'll look 90% as good as the "old" well cared for engine. Also do a full coolant flush using the relevant coolant cleaner, then change it after a year and it'll look better if not as shiny in the coolant passages.
