    Engin Revolutions

    When you have a engine as smooth running as this one you can’t extinguish between engine revs and road noises properly. Switching gears is not the problem, its the top speed and I have calculated the revs at 2585 rpm when doing 110 km/h whith a wheel diameter of 0,765 m, which is high when...

    Engin Revolutions

    Okay the reason why I need this...I have loaded a 2L Toyota turbo diesel into my landy but I know the Landrover gearboxes where designed for petrol engines mainly. Petrol engines are normally high rev machines so I need to know the revs not to damage the diesel engine. Sure one can calculate...

    Series IIA gearbox mountings

    The only brackets I have are series I...I think and the passenger side gearbox mounting bracket which I got with the series III gearbox. Comparing two left hand brackets; (one of the series I and one of the other) they are not the same. They obviously fit on the gearbox but the series I do not...

    Series IIA gearbox mountings

    I bought a Series IIA without its original gearbox, enjin and mountings. I have desided to fit a series III box but I have a problem in placing the box, the enjin mountings are already altered so I cant use the enjin for alignment. I want to use the original gearbox mounting brackets for it will...
