Thanx so much for that Paddler EdYour option locally are:
-Give https://www.allfourx4.com.au/ in Newcastle a call; they've just had a 1HZ come in recently, but I suspect you're looking at a decent bill ($4-5k)
-Give Multidrive parts in Tamworth a call
Otherwise, I like Glock's in town for maintenance work that I don't wnat to do, but not sure who is doing the reconditioning of heads other than Fowlers. There's some guys in Inverell who are supposed to be good at doing the reconditioning of heads.
Thanx so much for that Clive ill see if any aboutI’m no expert, but the 1HD (turbo version from an 80 series) should drop straight in if you can find one... 12 or 24 valve...
Thanx paddler ill contact and seeJust seen this engine on Facebook Marketplace, down in Tamworth:
"1hz out of 2004 105 GXL Landcruiser engine, 374,000km good service history, new glow plugs, water pump, front crank and fuel pump seals, timing belt and tensioner and rear main seal. Runs well, removed for engine conversion
$3,000"

Bit late to the party with this reply, but still useful information. Yes, you can drop another motor from another model landcruiser straight in, such as the 1HDT, but understand you will have to replace almost the entire drive train to match the new engine power rating. Brakes, gearbox, everything! Better to replace with the correct engine the vehicle was designed for, unless you’re up for spending some pinga’s.I’m no expert, but the 1HD (turbo version from an 80 series) should drop straight in if you can find one... 12 or 24 valve...
