What I had done would've cost the average Joe about $800. I didn't pay that much, though...
On a sidenote, I found some tires. No reason now not to go to Uwharrie! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/drunk.gif" alt="" />

35x12.50-15 BFG KM2's on 15x8 Black Rock D-hole steels in Teflon matte black. I should be driving it by the 18th.
I hope to have all the little it-picky stuff ironed out by then. I was planning a dual battery setup with both batteries in the rear. But, Frank has kinda talked me out of it. Almost...

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"

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.

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...

Drove it to and from work today. Uneventful. Only issues to sort are:
No O/D.
Autometer Water & Trans Temp gauges aren't registering.
Needs an alignment after installing the GenII box.
Weld on the aux trans cooler bracket so it can be mounted.
Figure out why, when I ground the base timing plug, it arcs. It's already melted one of my test leads... Ungrounded it's running at 18-20* BTDC at idle.
Then, there's a heap of interior stuff to do in the coming months...
More pics forthcoming...

<img src="/forums/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" />Scratch that. Now I have no headlights, I'm blowing fuses in the aux fuse panel like crazy. Got something bad wrong, maybe it's just a pinched wire somewhere... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />
Oh, the joys...

After visual inspection and some test light and meter probing, I found 3 blown fuses, 2 burnt thru wires, a bad relay and a fuse panel that was damaged from melting. Replaced the fuses, repaired the wires, replaced the relay and fuse panel and voila. I have headlights back and my Autometer gauges register. I had a couple wires backwards somehow, which had overloaded a few circuits causing the aforementioned damages. I guess all's well that ends well.
Still need to figure out O/D and check if the base timing plug still arcs or not, but I'll save that stuff for tomorrow night...
