Just to pick up on this.....

Have I got this right? (all relating to LT77 in a Defender):
The 200tdi will fit onto any LT77
300tdi needs an R380 bell housing on the front of an LT77

Sort of....

Defender spec 200tdi will bolt straight onto a Defender spec LT77 or LT77s

A Disco spec 200Tdi needs two holes enlarging and tapping in the rear cover to fit a Defender spec Lt77 - as the bolt pattern on a Disco Lt77 bellhousing is different to a Defender Lt77 bellhousing.

To fit a Lt77 to a 300tdi you need to change the 300tdi rear cover (i.e. the bit that houses the flywheel) for a Na, Td, or 200Tdi one...  it will then bolt straight up to a Lt77 bellhousing.
