Been busy at work and trying to get this 86' 6 cyl Trader work ready. No one's that interested in little Japtrucks so here's an abridged version in pictures.

Yep that's the one. Truck included a spare E4100 Mazda/Perkins with it.
From what I can see the only difference, is the ZB Mazda/Perkins has the individual glow plugs and intake to suit.
and the E4100 being earlier has no glows but a large pre heater in the intake.
Intake pre-heater. I would imagine it would be direct injection ?? To be set up like this.

All swirl chamber engines ...........I had the Leyland on the road for about 8 years ......the motor was great,the crap part was Leyland ..........the diff was a POS ,and I had to adapt a Toyota F70 truck crownwheel and pinion to it...........anyhoo ,in 2004 the rego got too high ,and I had a company ute so I let the rego lapse.

Incidentally ,you cant swap the crank or block between motors ,they are different ...........the injector pump was problematic on mine .....its an early VE/VF type pump,and at just above idle would blow white smoke .............enough for the scalies to notice ,so had to be careful not to coast along with a touch of throttle .....no smoke at full revs ,and the truck would easily sit on 100kmh.

30 odd years ago a mate had a 247 in his F100 4x4. It seemed like the ultimate set up for the time.

A 7.3 bored out to 8 liter with turbo is better in a F100 4X4.

Little Jap trucks are a good thing, I have a couple of little Isuzu 4 tonners
Cheap, reliable
None look as flash as this
Looking good

What have you done with the air cleaner, I am in the middle of putting 3 inch pipes into a 2 inch Donalson because its the only thing that will fit, because it's a 4X4 the oil filters are remote mounted on the chassis next to the radiator as there is no room between the sump and the front diff.
Sorry for the Hijack.

Nothing wrong with a 6BT in an F350 either.
