5 minute job then....
Aren't they always
And the fact that the vehicles are 10 miles apart doesn't help. Can't get them together either.
How easy is it to refit the propshaft? Might see if the missus will let me source one

Why was the original propshaft removed? Often it's because the VCU has stiffened up. This is bad as it trashes the IRD and rear diff.
Fitting the propshaft is an easy 30 minute job.
Seems a whole lot of hassle for not a lot of extra power...

Does anyone have, or know where I can get the wiring diagram so I can decipher the loom?
you could just lob the vvc engine in with vvc blanking plates. itll have more go than the standard engine. and get you up and running. then get around to getting the vvc unit working later.
Not worth the cost of blanking plates. The inlet cam needs changing to a special non VVC version too. Both items cost lots of cash and loose the torque of the VVC system.
set of cams from the mgtf 135 go straight it and have a similar profile to that of the vvc. and they go cheap!
Sorry but that is incorrect
The 135 exhaust cam fits the VVC head no problem. Fitting it is pointless as the standard VVC exhaust cam is basically the same cam anyway.

sorry you are right. its been a while since i had my mgtf!
Its putting the 135 cam in the normal 120 that makes a good difference on the tf
might be ok on the freelander, depends on personal preference, if you want a peaky engine or not i guess.
on my 1.8 freelander i put the vvc inlet manifold on instead of the plastic "small" one that is standard. Seemed to pep it up a little as air flow seemed to be increased a little.
might be the "in my head" dyno doing that though of course But the VVC manifold is considerably larger.
