I have a 1999 freelander 1, 2ltr di and was wondering if anyone had fitted or tried to fit a larger engine? If so which engine, from what, and what was the approximate cost?

Maddy keeps mentioning the Rover 220 turbo engine which whilst not exactly larger is a lot more powerful & can supposedly be fitted without serious modification. I've yet to see a Freelander with one but apparently it's a popular swap amongst the Rover boys whose cars use the same engine range.
 
I've actually been looking at a 2.5lt V6 from a later freelander model but i'm not sure what else i'd need to modify. I'd assume the gearbox would also have to come from the V6 model too? :confused:

Your obviously not too clued up on the Freelander then. Time to do an indepth search of the forum methinks.
