Hello all,
First off I'm sorry if I have put this in the wrong section!
My name is steff (I'm a bloke- long story and a traumatic childhood lol), I run a rather small yard where I buy and sell used l322s.
Now as I'm not exactly rolling in cash I use whatever it is I'm selling at the time, but me and the missus have found out that we're having a little one, so after upgrading her car I bought my self the first Range Rover after owning and selling them for the first time....well, I bought a very very abused 02 4.4 vogue.
So far I've stripped her to a bare shell and she's been painted in imperial blue.
So to the point in question, I have the 4.4 it came with so I can either play around with a votech supercharger till I get somewhere close...or.... Fit an s62 from an e39 m5.
I've had experience with both engines, but could do with knowing if anyone has done this in the past or is working on it, is it possible to fit one? Using the Range Rover gearbox? Will it work with a loom and ecu transplant or will the car throw a hissy fit and shut down all its other systems, stand alone ecu? Will the rr sump fit, it's rattling round in my brain, but I don't want to spend thousands on a crashed m5 if it's futile!
The 4.4 I have I would fit to a rr with a timing chain issue to recoup as much as possible.
Any advice would be great!
Thanks again and sorry for rambling!
If anyone wants to see the project so far just let me know
