Can't give you any real help on which are the best parts, but by the looks of your first post I am reasonably local to you if you need a hand or second opinion, etc

I take it the diesels aren't that good then? :confused2: I think I'll end up going down the rebuild route presuming the block isn't split!
Hi andy, yeah im doing at walker palce next to the harbour! An opinion from someone who actually knows about range rovers might be very helpfull! so far we deinately know its f***ed
. we know a fair bit about engines but have never had dealings with a range rover! thank you for the offer mate

I think one thing that can be taken from this K seal is pants and only a bodge for a fubar engine!
I think you will find it will need liners possible a regrind of the crank and a full set of bearings and cam one two
Tbh I would not fit a second hand engine as usually they are as fubard as the one you are replacing!
Currently have a bottom end rebuild to do on one car due to oil consumption not good
If you rebuild the fubar motor at least it will only ba a ons bank account hit rather than twice if you fit a unknown engine

btw v8 beast "dingo croft" are a pretty knowledgeable parts place who can sell you what you need and help you to get the right bits.
yeah, K-seal is officialy sh*t haha, aint going near the stuff again and the manufacturer is getting a letter of compaint as it claims its guaranteed to fix problems when it obv didnt!
we aint having much fun with our vehicles, the other day we fried the throttle body on the audi and then on friday night the engine in the van went bang too so at the minute, were working on getting the van sorted as its for work then the audi and then eventually the rangie will get touched!
thanks fett, ill get in touch with dingo croft once ive taken the engine out
