Hi guys,

I have recently brought a 1983 Hardtop Sierra with a 1L in here,

just wanted to know if what the options there are to change the engine to something a little more powerfull and whats needed todo this like can i use the same gearbox/engine mounts.

Sorry about this you have probs heard it hundreds of times but have tried searching etc but cant find any info to help.

Thanks again guys

Yeah, it has been discussed a few times. Unfortunately you will need to swap engine mounts to fit anything else. Simple/cheap option would be a G13 and matching 5 speed (gearbox mount and tunnel will need modifying). Another option would be the G16, either carby or EFi. Lots of different non Suzuki motors have been fitted also but a bit more dicking around.

The 1L isn't a bad motor, a little bit of work and they run ok. Is yours tired or not going?

[steven23441]

no it runs fine just a bit slow but havent had a chance to go off road yet in her so hopeing it will keep up alright with hills etc can handle going slow just as long as is going to be alright in the bush?

sorry guys im new to the zooks so any advice would be great

thanks again
