5k-6k,, yeah thats alot of work,,

since i last posted

it has gotten colder here in TN, more so at night and at the crack of dawn. when i leave for work

drove 26miles to work in my montero
got there no problem. "last week i did some math" i get 11 mpg....... that cant be normaly

anyways during lunch,, i went out to my montero and it was like someone got murdered. oil all over the place,, ground, tran' as far back as the rear axle......

so this weekend im going to pull the motor.

first question.. "of many im sure"

will a 6g72 dohc 24v bolt to that tranny, its the same as yours

no one can answer that question,, no one,,

the way i look at it, its a 6g72 block, just difrent heads. why wouldnt it bolt up? you know
i dont care about the other stuff i just want to know if it will bolt up.

if i cant find one thats in good shape im rebuilding the d!@$$ thing


so the 18th you say.. good luck post more pictures haha


You would probably get more info if you started a thread specific to your question, but the answer is yes, the DOHC block will both to the montero tranny. The rest, such as engine management (ECU etc) and exhaust, you'll have to figure out on your own...
