Was there much collateral damage to the rest of the engine?
I did have another camshaft but not sure if I've still got it.

The frontera engine was a more or less straight swap.
Any engine can be adapted to fit,depending on how much work you want to do.

The swaps I know of have been the diesel ones.

Could you turn your caps lock off.On forums it's deemed to be shouting.
