Think they'd need cutting off the chassis and welding where the 4 cylinder mounts are rather than anything being redrilled. I have no idea if doing this would give you clearance for a 300TDi though, I've never done it before! The measurements for the 4 cylinder chassis are all in the green bible...

The gearbox mounts are a couple of extra inches rearwards on a 6 cylinder compared to a 4 cylinder, and the engine mounts are a few inches forwards too. Numbers are scribbled in my green bible but I don't have it to hand at present. I don't know of any other differences in the chassis other than...

The engine's previously been bored out by 20 thou then. It's getting there!

It's not too late to change your mind and leave it in!

The electric fuel pump on my straight 6 is mounted on the rear wards face of the crossmember behind the gearbox. You can hear it ticking from the cab without the engine on but with the engine on its drowned out.

Sad to see this up on ebay! :-(

Yup, I've taken mine with no OD up to 63mph on the motorway once (only once) but it's happiest cruising A roads at 50mph (read that as me having some mechanical sympathy for the box and engine!).

Where's Dr. Evil when you need him, he had a knack of getting engines to run...no, wait...never mind.

Based on this and your previous thread, I'd find a different 'mechanic'.

What's the reason for wanting a 4 cylinder over a 6 cylinder? 6 cylinder has more torque, more horsepower, sounds beautiful, mine averages 17 mpg which isn't that far off of a 4 cylinder petrol (infact I have a friend with a 4 cylinder petrol who gets less than that), I will admit that if your...

What they said. Signed A fellow 6 pot owner.

None of the books I have give a location, a quick Google search says it should be on the block at the front left of the engine. I'll have a look at mine tomorrow to see if I can confirm this (I may need to clean some of the filth off of it to find it...).

I left mine in situ and just cut out one bit at a time.

I'm a 6 pot owner as well (check out my rebuild thread to see what mine needed doing) so it's nice to see another getting attention. And yes I do recognise the vehicle, I was surprised it took so long to sell. Get more pictures up, better quality ones too if possible, we all like seeing photos...
