3.5 Carb or EFi??? Also Manual or Auto???

<< < (5/5)

Range Rover Blues:
Funnily enough though when I asked the same question earlier this year no-one could give me a reason why I should keep the manual box when I swap the engine, the more I think about it the more the idea has grown on me and for towing it's a no-brainer.

Range Rover Blues:

--- Quote from: "clbarclay" ---My comments about engine breaking was refering to it locked in 1st low range. After a weekend of cadence breaking to maintain a suitable speed the breaks were suffering.


Interesting, personal I had never been impresed with mine on the road, mainly at higher speeds where it feels very sluggish, how much this has to do with a tired eingine though waits to be seen.

If your enngine is tired then engine braking will suffer quite a bit anyway, but I'm surprised you think the Auto box sluggish at speed, mine is anything but.

clbarclay:
Will have to compare it once the engine has been sorted out then, I've go another engine just not the time.

Range Rover Blues:
I know that feeling well, I'm planning to replace the V7 in blue with a 4.6 auto.

Best laid plans :oops:
