Small medium & big power

[Davotoo]

Hey Guys:

According to Perkins we have the small displacement version of the 200 series engine (the GB 4.135).
Wonder if we could bolt in the 182? There is a manual for the 4.152 series on ebay for $13 if anone is feels the need for speed.

G Family 4 154 4.154/200 Series

GA 4 154 4.154 = 4 cylinder 154 cu.in.
GB 4 135 4.135 = 4 cylinder 135 cu.in.
GC 4 182 4.182 = 4 cylinder 182 cu.in.

Update....Although these engines are based on the same design the size and shape of the crankcase are different and wouldn't fit our trucks. (just got a book off ebay)

Wow; such a "deal".

Don't think I'll be popping in a bigger bore 4.154...not that the overdrive would like it much anyways.

This will give you an Idea of what your engine is worth!

Hmm. A 1982 B3000? It would be good but not necessarily satisfy a need for speed. More like a need for torque.

Perhaps it's related to this monster:

And I wonder if it has a better transmission. 10 forward speeds!!

Ya gotta luv that pop out tent. I think I'd want dolly wheels on the legs in case it opened on the road. ;D.

Seems that Mazda trans didn't get any better in later years. Also this is probably the same motor that is in the 2 cent limey rig with rubber band timing belt and aluminium head.
