I'd just like the group's thoughts and experiences on transplanting a Range Rover V8 engine into a Landy 90.
Donor vehicle is 1984 3.5V8 Carb LT77 g/box. Recipient vehicle is 1886 D90 n/a Diesel
I am aware of the fuel, exhaust; cooling and electrical issues but need a few tips on the mechanical side:
Q Are the engine mount positions the same? (i.e. will it bolt straight in?)
Q Since both vehicles use LT77 boxes would it be easier to remove and transplant as one unit?
Q Will the Range Rover front axle and steering box (3 bolt) transplant directly? As the recipient vehicles s/box and axle is pretty much u/s
The expectation is to do this as an Autumn project and I will appreciate any advice or pointers you guys have, and also if all things go well to keep you all informed.
Many thanks in advance
-Tim
