Hey i have a 68 van and im just curious to know what are the options in different motors. Roundy's are a little smaller than clubby's so there is obviously not as many options, but could people pls let me know of any conversions that could fit in a roundy.. Any pics will help...
Cheers
Daniel

In the front or the back? :lol:

There's the obvious ones: gti, n/a starlet, daihatsu, echo

But you could challenge yourself: gt starlet. Relocate the turbo over the top of the gear box with a custom manifold. Reverse mount the alternator like Brad has. Put the radiator in the rear somewhere. I'm convinced it could be done.

In the front, way to much work to put it in the rear.

Does anyone know what the model of the suzuki motor is?

Why not be the first in Aus to try the suzuki hayabusa 1300 and 6 speed box conversion like the one in june's mini world? sounds good,but dont know how the engineers here would like it, also plenty of room in the back of a van! that would have been 1 hell of a job to get everything to work 8)
