GMC Diesel

<< < (2/2)

ian101:
I probably heard wrong about the 4.5l then  :roll:

trustyrusty:
Had a 6.2 in my rangie and as said before you hear it before seeing it. Did about 22-25 on a long motorway run and they are very heavy 750 lbs.

LOFTY:
I had a 90 with a 6.5 gmc diesel, and 1:1 transfer box, 20-70mph made hot hatches look silly.
My mistake was taking the LT85 box out, and fitting a Ashcroft heavy duty ZF  auto in it, after about 5000 miles it would slip in top gear.
But the sound it made, was to die for, 421 ss headers.

Also had a Disco with one in, ripped the transfer box to bits while pulling a loaded trailer, land rover bits arnt designed for that kind of torque.

They will run for ever, if you service them correctly, and dont boil them to many times, as the land rover front end struggles to get a big enough radiator in it. :?

I've got a 5.7 in the garage if you're interested.
