where have I gone wrong?
Range rover 4 speed manual box, 3.5 engine blow up, came across a 3.9 engine at the right price, dropped it in, used same manifold and carb of the 3.5. it will now only go at 45mph at around 4-5000 rpm, sounds like it needs 5 speed box.
any suggestion appreciated

Ps I also fitted a Astra GTE dash with my current tyres 235 85 16 the Speedo is 2-3 mph out based on the gps reading. water temp needed a 14ohm resister in series to calibrate, still need to calibrate oil and fuel levels, rpm works fine.
