My guess would be lexus V8 (several in NZ) but not sure if any in OZ, it can be done but the engines are so wide you loose more than you'd gain. Just a guess.
However an engine I don't think I've ever seen in a Beddy is a Jag V12, or even a pontiac V8
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"

Hi,
my gues would be Toyota Supra 1JZ GTE or 2JZ GTE turbo, with Auto Box. Standard bottom end good for up to 600 hp. Come with aircon, powersteering pump etc.
