landy with diahatsu engine

[david901 165]

Hi has anyone any experience of fourtrack diesel engines fitted into a landrover.

Are they any better than a landrover engine and is there any benefits.

Also is there any issues with them?

There is a defender down the road for sale, so i thought i'd ask about them.

 

Cheers

they are great, torque in more places, easier run, more powerful, and most importantly dont break as often as original.

easily converted, need a engine to gearbox adaptor plate, the radiator from v8, expansion bottle from v8 and twin electric fans, the fourtrak engine seems to run hotter than the landy, so better rad and fans keeps you sweet.

good luck
