Acco perkins transplant
Just wondering if anyone has had experience transplanting a Perkins 6.354 into an army acco? I've been told it will bolt straight in - does this mean it will it match up to the existing petrol 282 bellhousing and flywheel?

I had a mate that was going to do it to his Mk.5, but he had to sell it before he was able to do it.
I have seen a few accos for sale with perkins engines installed, so it can't be too difficult.

acco perkins
You need to obtain the perkins and bellhousing out of an Acco that was equipped with that type of engine .
This will make the conversion basically just a swap. Regards Jim S

Acco/perkins Transplant
G,day Sam I,ve fitted a perkins 6-354 to the army Inter,I sugest dropping the rear engine/gearbox crossmember down 40-50mm as the rocker cover will foul the fibreglass engine cover.I also fitted the T-34 gear box so 5th gear was over drive. Tony
