If that's the way to go WB, I do have a couple of spare V8's kicking around the joint. On that topic, would it be wrong of me to rebuild the ute to original, but chuck a worked small block Chev donk into it? I don't really know the "ins and outs" of what's acceptable or not in the world of Sandman yet.

Bloody oath. It is a 6cyl Sandman, no-one wanted them when new! A V8 conversion wouldn't reduce its value, but you won't easily get a HX registered with a SBC unless on LPG. You'd be better off sticking with a 308 or an injected 5L.
