300tdi Auto into a 2a?

<< < (2/2)

NiteMare:
take the oil filter head off the engine block and make up a plate that covers about 5 bolt holes on the engine, this plate also covers where the oil filter head sits and has the required barbs/connections for the remote filter, this plate also has the engine mount as part of it to allow it to sit on the original chassis mount

it has already been done by a series 2a owner, absolutely no need to chop the chassis apart from removing the battery tray or extending the legs and making it removable to give the timing chest clearance

i've not personally done this conversion as both my Series landies have 200tdi engines (88" bitsa and a 1965 109)

only time you "may" have to move engine mounts would be if you use a defender 300tdi engine as i think the timing chest is a different shape and may put the injector pump in an inconvenient place

James.Harwood:
Only 2 questions for you to consider:

1. how much will this conversion cost?
2. how many miles do ou do a year?
