ScottieJ, believe me I do understand. Any help you can provide to put me in touch with a sump or a worn F8a would be much appreciated.

I need to open a new thread with bits/list that would be a help to finish.

If you do decide to let a motor go, then let me know, otherwise I will keep on looking.

I have done a few more bits to the LJ and have had a few suggestions of LJ sumps or possible F8a motors awaiting rebuilds and languishing under workshop benches for years nothing has come to fruition yet.

I think I am going to pull the F10 engine out and take a closer look to see if I can do something about fitting it into the engine bay.

If anybody is able to help with finding a sump (or f8a) do not hesitate to contact me through this thread or privately any help would be appreciated.

Look at this I found a sump for a F8a on a German website for 55 euros perfect just what I need to move me on. I sent an email in my best German asked for a price to include postage to UK etc

And the response:-

Hallo dot not send abroad because here ist complicadet with the shipping
and very expensive greet

Back to the drawing board.

Stick a Vitara engine in it and be done? Just a thought!

Now you are being silly!

and have over estimated my abilities, I was told that the SJ410 engine would drop straight in........?

There is no way that I am going to try and shoe horn a Vitara in there when the one that is supposed to be the perfect alternative is proving problematic.

Mine has a Vit lump. There is a lot of room in there...

That is interesting that you should say that ........ how does the Vitara engine get around all the steering, damper and differential stuff???? Is there a trick I am missing with the SJ410 motor?
