87 suzuki samurai to vw 1.6td swap
 

does anyone on here have any helpfull info on this i know u can buy a kit to install a vw 1.6 td into a samurai but dont know a whole lot about diesel other than its supposed to take three wires to run these engines .would it take any kind of new fuel system or anything crazy.

ACME ADAPTERS Suzuki Samurai Turbo Diesel these guys have alot of stuff to help you out:U:

Give the samurai some actual power !:U:

Throw an Mercedes Spinter Intercooler into it, adjust the fuel delivery a little bit higher,and that tiny engine goes from 70hp up to 120hp. To make it durable throw an Oil cooler in it, and it will run forever.:U:

thanks everyone for the info

Also check out Zuwharrie.Com BBS - Index forums they have a section for diesel swaps.

And a few guys here that have done it also and a wealth of info and great folks. Zukikrawlers - Powered by vBulletin
