I failed to mention before that you should be able to use your original =
generator/alternator on the replacement 2.286 litre engine.  Wired in =
the same manner that it is currently.  If you are swapping to an =
alternator from a generator this will require different wiring dependant =
on the make/model of alternator you use.

The other problem you will have is the exhaust.  On the 2.286 litre the =
engine pipe goes straight down between the engine and chassis rail.  You =
will have to re-route the system to suit potentially using the series 2 =
design/pipework.

P.S.  Although I remember the movie, "the Gods must be crazy" I haven't =
seen it in a while so can't tell you the make of the winch.  You will =
find that it is a PTO/mechanical model so is likely a Garwood brand.

I think Peter was suggesting that you unbolt the 1.997litre at the =
engine mounts and fit the 2.286 litre engine and rubber mounts onto the =
chassis brackets.

DO NOT REMOVE (CUT OFF) THE CHASSIS BRACKETS FROM THE CHASSIS SIDE =
RAILS.

The electricals are easy, but depends on the model of the 2286cc engine =
you have to put in.

If you have an early starter motor you only have connect the main =
battery lead that was connected to your 1997 cc engines starter.

If you have a later 2286cc engine which had a key start - then a couple =
of other mods are necessary.  The simplest method is:  Connect the main =
starter cable to the large terminal on the starter motor as above.  On =
the back (engine bay side) of the starter button (switch) remove the =
cable to the starter motor from the terminal it is currently on and =
connect it to the other terminal with the main battery cable.  On the =
now vacant terminal of the starter switch run a new wire to the solenoid =
terminal small terminal on the starter motor.

Remove the electric fuel pump and throw it in your spares box with the =
1997 cc engine. Protect the end of the live fuel pump wire or remove the =
wire completely.

You can leave the original coil connected as usual and connect the wire =
(removed from the distributor on the 1997 cc engine) to the distributor =
on the new 2286 cc engine and connect the high tension lead to the =
centre terminal of the distributor.  (If your new engine had the  7 volt =
resistor system you need some other mods. This can be involved so email =
me direct.)

Connect the oil pressure switch wire to the oil pressure switch.

Connect the mixture warning light wire (the one from the switch on the =
choke cable) to the mixture thermostat switch.

You don't need to connect the water temp wire unless you have a series =
2a instrument cluster.

It is all done.=20
