State of engine swaps/builds in 2018?
#12
Wouldn't an LS use it's own cam, and electronics to control it? So you could use any LS cam to support however the engine was built?

Saw the engine swap, while at Trailhead, and it looked professional done. Eric is an awesome dude, very knowledgeable about rovers...and toyota. One man show, from what he mentioned to me. Wish he was closer, would love to work with him after retiring from my day job.
If, and this is a size of the earth "if", I was building a special Dll rig that I planned on keeping forever...I'd not think twice about going this route. Buy a clean body/frame/interior rig for a couple grand and drop this engine in it. 12K for a reliable Dll and build from there...much better than building and continually having engine issues...IMO.

How about somebody else do the research and first build on the TDI conversion, I'll go second. (surely it's been done plenty of times, just not out front and center on this forum.) There are probably guys over in the EU wanting to do Petrol engine swaps..
