Very nice looking Discos!
I used to mess with older small block V8s, hence my comment about ZZDP. I don't have anything currently that requires it; my 78 Camaro has a newer EFI 350 with a roller camshaft, and everything else I have utilizes some form of OHC. But in the back of my mind, I'd like to pick up a Disco or Disco II someday to play with. As soon as I rebuild the 2ZZ in my Pontiac Vibe (basically a rebadged Toyota Matrix), I plan to use it a lot more for chasing due to the much better fuel mileage. RAM used to make a mount for the Vibe/Matrix/Corolla but it seems it's been discontinued, and I've had trouble locating the mounting plate in the wild. I've been told that RAM will make an older mount upon request, but I've not been in touch with them to verify this.
