Hi all, I’m buying my first 90 - 2.5td I’m quite handy at body and interior finishes and getting things to look the part. And although I can do a bit mechanically I’m struggling with / deciding which engine is best to upgrade through lack knowledge of what will fit, integrating a new gear box, wiring and ecu. My issue is if I go v8 rover the running costs will be crazy high and I need a daily user to commute and if I upgrade to the 300 tdi Let’s face it all they are painfully slow. Any diesel old school German 3ltr D engines (bmw/Mercedes’) worth fitting ? granted I accept I will have to change the diff, transfer box and probably go auto, I guess for me is to keep it simple old school diesel with little ecu integration. Any ideas or advice ? I was thinking old E, vito, sprinter 3d ?
