Title: 12 valve ?
Post by: mesjr2004 on May 24, 2005, 12:33:42 PM

will a 12 valve motor out of a storm bolt to a tracker transmition? and would their be a noticeable power increase?

A storm is an Isuzu not a Suzuki.

I am guessing it won't work.

Japanese (and Canadian?) built Suzukis use Mitsubishi electrics, Spanish built Zuks use Mitsubishi fuel injection but also use  Bosch alternators, starters and other bits.

Not really, it's probably cheaper to buy those thinks at mitsu and adapting them a little then building those bits yourself  ;)

     I think you'd be better off finding something that is closer to a bolt in. To my knowledge (for what that's worth) the bolt patterns will be different. Add to that all the bracketry, mounts, electronics etc it would be easier to find a larger Suzuki or go right off the wall and do one of the Chevy conversions.
    How much power are you looking for?

The Storm looks like an Isuzu to me.
