do you need to change engine mounts on these and can they fit to a standard s3 gearbox and what frigin propshafts do i use little help

please thanks
 
a 200 tdi will fit straight in to a series 3 with little or no mods to the engine mounts. and straight onto the gearbox using standard props and everything.
do you mean 2.8 isuzu, this will be harder to fit as you will need a conversion plate for the box. not too sure who sells them anymore, i have always made my own.
 
i have made them for anything using a v8 gearbox bellhousing (v8, tdi disci/range etc) because the plate needs only to be 10mm thick, and a spigot bush adapter for the end of the crank.
havnt attempted to make one for a defender because looking at the bought conversion plate they are a lot wider than the other type. there didnt seem to be an easy way of making it, may have a go one day though.
put one in a 300 disco using the standard box with an lt77 v8 bellhousing the 10mm plate drilled to fit and a spigot adapter about 2" long. been in there 2 1/2 years and gets used and abused on a farm every day.
