Jake, you're going to have a hard time on this thread too. You can put almost any engine in a Sierra- sierras have been around a long time, people have tried almost everything that fits and stuff that doesn't too. These days most people would suggest sticking with the 1.0 or upgrading to a 1.3/1.6 G series motor. Stand by though for a list of every whacky conversion ever tried though. Engine conversions are pretty complex though- there's lots of ways they can be stuffed up. Steve. |

Christover has a build thread of swapping a 1.3 into a 1.0. He might chime in with the link. Have you done an engine conversion before? Lots to take into account. |

12ht with early 40 series 3 speed gearbox and transfer. I had this setup in the late 80s and it was awesome. |

don't discount the 1ltr motor.. mine go's quite well. it is 100% off road but on a gravel road it holds 100kph with 32" tires and 2 decent sized blokes in it! |

1.0 litres here in VIC were getting a bit rarer and harder to find good ones. I loved my 1.0 motor, but went to 1.3 for availability of engines and boxes etc. |

Trypt wrote: Hayabusa engine! Hayabusa motors are expensive as every body wants them for their off road buggies ets. however my hayabusa has a bigger motor than my jimny and at over 200whp i think it would tear the jimny trans and transfer to peices especially given the jimny's are rocking ~88hp at the crank. given what you have has 1.0litre components im not sure they would stand upto those sorts of power levels  you could always just source a factory fitted motor and slot it straight in with no problems.
