The plan was for to do it in yer head!!!

My 7 times table and 4 & 2 times tables is a tad better than my 1.175 times table. I can manage to calculate the VAT due without recourse to a calculator or computer, although I will occasionally use a bit of pencil and paper when the numbers get long.

Looking at your seuggestion there Richard and I beg to differ, with that you get the VAT free amount, not the VAT, If I'm doing that sum in my head I subtract

15% which I can usually figure without recourse to mechanical addidtance. That is not exact but you'll be hard pushed to find the error.

Would it be wise to start another thread on this ? Kind regards, Erik-Jan.

It gives less power than a V8 with the same driveline so why would it break down with the Perkins and not with a V8?

And back to the original question, is a Milner conversion only the engine or more?

btw, we are talking a british licensend car here....KEF XXX ???? A red County 4 door saloon shipped to the Netherlands. Familiar to anyone ???? White (tropic) roof, 109, 11 seats. Built around 1982.

Kind regards, E.J.

A V8 wouild have come with full time 4WD for a start, which will distribute the torque to four wheels all the time, and have the required 3rd diff.

I'm not familiar with this conversion, but does that come with the uprated transmission that a V8 does?

Didn't know fill-time 4WD was only featured in the V8.

Don't know. Looks like the transmission and engine are swapped. The transmission has a knob under the right seat for lo/hi range and Neutral. (Why Neutral ???) then there is another knob in the center of the car on top of the box. It can be pulled forewards. Do not know what its use is. Might be en air locker for the center diff ??? Do not know otherwise how to shift from 2wd to 4wd if it is possible at all. Kind regards, Erik-Jan.

PTO?

That's right for a Stage 1 V8. This has a neutral to allow changing from high to low or vice-versa on the move (slowly!) by double de-clutching.

Thats the vacuum centre diff lock "lever".

It's in permanent 4WD - with a centre diff lock that should not be used on tarmac - i.e. the same as a Range Rover. The chances of the centre diff vacuum actuator actually working, unless it's been changed recently, is tending towards zero!

No ! Neutral on transmission will do.
