Sorry to resurrect an old thread..
Did you have any issues with the Spigot bearing for the gearbox? (what parts did you need)
I have a Daihatsu in a a RR Classic 1983 (Ex V8) The timing belt snapped So have purchased a replacement engine to go in, all going well and fine until the spigot bearings, Cant get the original daihatsu spigot out (new engine) (have resorted to drilling it out, And now can't get what looks like a sleeve for the brass spigot out (from the original engine), (The Brass popped right out with the Hydrolic Grease meathod.)
Any help would be greatly appreciated after 4 hours of playing with them............

Get a local engineering works to turn you one up. If you know somebody with a lathe its half an hours work at the most.

The guys that do the Daihatsu conversion kit, will supply you a New spigot bush for £25+VAT i think.

07583 127 355 or 07583 085 983
My Daihatsu engine had a proper bearing in for the spigot, i removed it and knocked a bronze one up down my mates machine shop.
I think it was some thing like, 32 o,d 22 i,d and 10mm thick.

You only need the one wire out of the 3 to open the stop solenoid!

Hi,
Great thread, has helped answer loads of questions.
I've got an E reg 110 with a DL - 52 lump in it (was a V8 apparently).
Just a few questions:
Which lump did you have in it originally?
How does she drive now, speed, pull, mpg etc?
Did you ramp up fuel and boost?
And lastly where did you get and what type (size) is your intercooler?
Sorry for all the questions but, thanks in advance for any answers.
