i had some 4zc1-t manifolds bolted onto my g180 head and they bolted right up no problem, I needed to replace the upper row of studs on the intake with long bolts because of the thickness of the casting but beyond that they went right on like they belonged there
and yeah I think a 4zd1 will be plenty powerful for your needs with a nice manifold and dello, later on add a set of headers/extractors and you will be rolling really nicely.
After a bit of research the Lynx manifold will fit nicely with the possible need of minor port matching. The mechanical fuel pump apparently is bolted to the induction manifold, so that needs to be replaced with an electronic high volume item with a pressure regulator if I run the Lynx manifold, (which I will
) and the recess on the head where the OE fuel pump actuator feeds through and gets driven by the cam needs blanking off or welding up, a blanking plate seems to be less technical and just as effective,,, but otherwise the induction manifold & headers are an almost direct fit
I already have the headers from the G161 which I'm told will bolt right on as well,,,, plus the 5 speed manual gearbox that I have will bolt right up no issues. The 4zd1 I was going to get was sold though, so now I just need to track down another.
