Td into series bell housing?

S3hooke · Nov 12, 2012

So I have a Perkins I'm selling to swap for a td.... Will it pop straight into the existing bell housing? And sit on engine mounts? Thanks for your help in advance

without seeing which perkins and how its been fitted cant say, may be a heath robinson with moved mounts or all sorts, and why on earth do you want a TD???? are you mad?

cheers steve

Haha! The Perkins isn't allowed to trial, has to be landy engine. I want a cheap quick starting engine so not the 2.25 - slow starting. And not the tdi's - too expensive at present.

Hence a £40 td with 100k on the clock.

Had one before was reliable and ran the 110 with no problems.

Bell housing is main question as mounts I can weld and move
