You are bidding on a ONE OF A KIND FJ40. This engine is a 383 stroked forged motor which pumps out about 500 hp. Runs on 93 octane pump gas. It started as a project and I have over 35,000 invested in it however I do not have the time to finish it and with the way business is booming for us I will never be able to finish it. I have just about every receipt for every item. Everything below the frame is new, We just don't have time, to keep on with the project. I will try to list as many mods as possible below, I do have a fuel injection POWERJECTION III system that I am not using and will include with the deal it retails for around 1600.00 but I liked the carb better it is a custome AED Carb built specifically for this vehicle, it runs awesome. It is important to me that it goes to a good home where someone will appreciate it.
