Auto Gearbox problem
Range Rover Blues:
The Borg-Warner and LT230 are interchangeable, so you can keep your existing T-Box and then not worry about either the viscous coupling or speedo.
But, on the soft-dash the electronic speedo sender bolts directly into the T-Box whereas on the hard-dash models there is a short cable from the T-Box to the chassis rail where the electronic sender lives. This is partly because the very early Hot-wire cars had the old analogue speedo so the older sender had a cable drive on the front face for a second cable that ran to the dash. By '94 this was well obsolete.
Good news is that AFAIK the electronic doobry bolts in in place of a cable, so the parts are interchangeable.

Hi again,
RangeRoverBlues,do you know if a 1997 300tdi autobox from a disco will fit ?
cheers,
andy
Range Rover Blues:
I'll put money on it not fitting, the bellhousing will be different and I know that on a manual the input shaft is longer on a V8.
Plus, and this is a biggy, the valving inside will be set up for a diesel that does't do revs, so your V8 won't develop all it's power.
