Thats not mine, i was just wondering if a tdi engine could be fitted in, as far as i gather that is the orignal chassis

Thomas:
we sell lots of 200tdis and 300tdis out of discos at work and some of the customers have tried fitting them to series land rover and not succeed. But one did tell me once, that he had done it with not much hassle but he did say there was a lot of cutting and welding, on thing like the exhaust and engine mounts. But if you could get the mounts with a engine your half way there.

tomarse:
you would kinda expect exhaust work and engine mount work with most engine swaps!.

any engine will fit in a landrover if you try hard enough so i cant see why you wouldnt succeed. I helped a mate do a 2.5 petrol and 5 speed 90 box into a coil sprung 88 and that was straight forward enough.

ian_s:
a 200tdi fits dead easy into a series motor

bolts straight to the series gearbox
drivers side engine mount needs changing
exhaust has to be custom made or you can buy one from Steve Parker
rad and intercooler need mounting.

but thats it
easy peasy

i did mine on my own. and it rocks. rocks more than words can describe.

A Series is a leafer, not a coiler.  Leaf springs are standard, coil springs are not.  If a Series has coil sprungs like a 90/110, then it's not got an original chassis anymore as far as the law is concerned.
