it's possible (with an adaptor plate) , but the gearing in the gearbox is not really "correct" for a petrol engine.. you'll be shifting out of 1st almost immediately to 2nd , etc.. since a petrol engine rev's higher than a diesel...You're better off swapping both engine and gearbox ...
Either way , remember to get the complete wiring loom and black box computer (if it has one) for the engine ...

i think you mean 3.1, dont bother the 3.1 is a "you know what" engine. the 2.8 will produce more power because it is direct injection and it is more reliable.

If the isuzu v6 is any more than a straight bolt in swap I would go the holden v6 way as well. Cheaper to buy at least as reliable and lots more power
