[300tdi 6speed 110 build]

Here's a little video of it running with the puma instruments. Battery light staying on as I haven't got a drive belt fitted only short as had no radiator either at that point.

Quick run as no radiator getting the dash up and running

The ratios should be well suited to the 300tdi on a heavy expedition build especially the low first. Yes most of the steel work has been galvanised, yes it is a black sheep crossmember.

The reason I went for the 6speed is it because it has a slightly higher top than the 380 obviously. And it tied in with the dash conversion nicely, also the stronger clutch is a added bonus.

I'm hoping it will have a slightly broader powerband with the VNT and 2.8 injector pump. I don't know anyone who has fitted the 2.8 pump but it runs higher pressure so it should give a cleaner burn in turn being able to adjust the pump up abit dependant on what the EGT has to say about that.

Hi the front differential is a 24spline rover Diff with ashlocker, the 6speed uses an adapter and the puma flywheel and clutch, which is a good move in my opinion as it has a far higher tourque rating than the 300tdi one.

Cwazy wabbit, it is a new 300tdi chassis, i decided upon using a puma rear axle case as I prefer to be able to pull the diff as a unit albeit weaker I have an ashlocker for it also and will possibly fit a heavy duty ring and pinion and have it pegged which should result in a fair diff, bulkhead wise it's puma I personally like the puma dash and I have a heater that works alongside my night heater I should have a warm defender I purchased a new take off puma double cab tub from foley's simply beacuse it would save me a ton of work sorting the other one and with it being double cab it has a bulkhead so I can make a nice partition for the rear of the vehicle. Also with it being a puma tub it will accept directly puma second row seats this was a must for me to have my kids in proper seats, I fitted the folding type screen hinges as I am going for a retro look I also have split csw front and second row doors to go on. All in all I want the look of early 110 but it be more usable with the tdi and other bits.
