Is just engine box and tank or at least pump in tank that I will need to change? Wouldn't it be moore expensive to insure an engine swapped motor than a normal 300tdi.
What's wrong with the V8 I've not been keeping up
The benefit of a engine swap is you can do all the jobs that take ages to do otherwise, Cam belt, clutch rear and front crank seals etc while the engine is out. Giving you a reliable motor for years
Just annoyed with it. Better mpg from a 300tdi, if this v8 keeps annoying me I'll rip it out and put a tdi in. But got me thinking full 12 month MoT. No patches very little rust might sell and get a 300tdi anyway.
True. Keep the v8 for a project build.
Better the devil you know I've got 2 V8's waiting for projects comp safari one day
Yeah just considering the extra mpg is making me think, Lpg seems like a bad idea on these rover v8s
If you know it's got a good body and chassis why risk buying a lemon when you can drop a 300 in easily enough and have an all round gooden
Yeah. Am I right tank pump line and engine box is all that needs swapping over?
Wouldn't ecu swap over if I had a 300tdi donor to get it all out.
