I noticed some thick oily sludge on the ground under the air filter, can't remember if the temp gauge moved, it was over 20 years ago. As well as cracked head, pistons, the head gasket had gone to, I wasn't worth rebuilding as the cost including garage labour worked out not much less than a brand new 200tdi repower kit, which is still fitted & got rebuilt by me at the end of 2017, best engine LR have made IMHO. 

Hi. I know this is an old post, but I am in need of some advise. Or rather guidance from someone wiser than me.

If I begin with a 19j block,can I use a 200tdi head gasket & head and end up with a driveable landrover? Mine is a 19J with a cracked  head(rare to source now). Was hoping to get the Bosch injection pump and nozzles for this too. 

Thanks for your time.
