Re: Pajero heads for sigma?

I thought I heard someone say that the inlet manifold bolt pattern is different aswell? So with a lower compression I will have to tune my carby to suit? Also did you have an answer for my breather hose question? I have an astron II engine.

Pajero heads for sigma?

Does anyone know if the 2.6L pajero head will fit on the sigma engine? Also I think the seal at the front is different to the sigma it doesn't have the breather hose there. Does this mean I can't use it?

World record clutch

My GJ sigma has 310000kms and is running on the original factory clutch, is this a common thing amongst the rest of the sigmas? How long can a clutch last for if treated right?

Re: Sigma V8 Conversion

Yeh it was the 2.6L engine. Its a GSR. Ok so basically remove the astron engine, take some measurements to see if it fits. How about the engine mounts, will that be a difficult task? And how do you go about doing that? Also, what are you doing for the radiator, the diff, and tailshaft? I would like ...
