Petrol to diesel

<< < (2/2)

cstokes:
I don't know about the 300tdi,  but the 200tdi will fit on to your box, what you need to do is use the 200tdi clutch pressure plate with the series 2a friction plate.  On the diesel pump side of the engine there is a gearbox mounting stud in the bell housing that needs to be removed.

You will also have to fit four studs into the bottom of the bell housing if it is a disco engine as on the disco it uses four long through bolts and these don't line up with the series gearbox.

matthew:
Did you use Disco or Defender manifolds and turbo?

cstokes:
I used the disco inlet and exhaust manifolds,  Inlet is not an issue, but you will have to cut the cast front pipe and rotate it about 1/2" clockwise to clear the chassis rail, you will the have to fabricate an exhaust system.
Every thing else clears. Radiator and inter cooler are all a little tricky, but it just a matter of finding the best fit.  I ditched the viscous fan and fitted electric fan instead, much easier. if you require any info just drop us a pm.
 i don't mind taking photo's if this helps.

Miniman:
I have a Series 3 2.25Diesel and I would not recomend it for power as I run out of steam when going up steep hills yeh go for the 200tdi
