Not my field of expertise I'm afraid. PantherShaun & Flap are our resident Landy nuts.

its not a complex as it looks i bought my set up already fitted to a motor put it in my car and found it completly undrivable on the road! so was sold as i wrote the car off first time out! Roll Eyes for the money it cost new and how it was made and the way it performed i would,nt buy one! would be better fitting a gmc 6.6 diesel for offroad work! Wink

I had a V8 Disco, best car in the world. Cant see the turbos helping much off road though, turbo lag and all that. Keep the V8 as its one of the best engines ever. How about a 4.6 out of a Rangie or a 5 litre from a TVR or a super charger or nitrous, go on have a super charged 5 litre V8 with nitrous. Or if he's got a spare 50 grand have a Bowler Wildcat. I'm all excited now just thinking about it Grin
