Torfab Gen V GM V8 LT Adapter V2
LT Engine Conversion Adapter Kit for 80 Series Land Cruiser
The Torfab LT Conversion Adapter Kit allows you to install a Gen V GM V8 engine and factory 8-speed or 10-speed transmission into your 80 Series Land Cruiser while retaining the factory transfer case location, transfer case crossmember, and stock drivelines.
Unlike many conversion options that require extensive fabrication, driveline modifications, or frame welding, this system was designed to simplify the installation process by utilizing the factory engine mount locations and stock transfer case position.
The result is a clean, bolt-in installation that eliminates much of the guesswork associated with engine placement and drivetrain alignment.
