Sounds like fitting something else to break to me 😔 Mo

I thought Mr Yak had a Tdi which has a mechanical lift pump. Mo

Yup, 2.4 has a fuel pick up and gauge float assembly. Mo

If it were me i would go for a secondhand 2.4 puma plastic tank which will hopefully come with its original fuel pick up, suitable for use with a Tdi rather than a pump (used on Td5 and 2.2 puma). Saves pennies 😉 HTH Mo

Lof are shortly going to be selling a converter to use the Defender abs double diaphragm servo unit on a non abs car. https://lofclutches.com/shop/brakes/brake-kits/coming-soon-lof-powerboost-servo-kit-for-non-abs-defender/ I'm trying lof pads on the back at the moment and although the fronts (genuine and seemingly last forever) do most of the work, I was quite surprised at the improvement in braking over the previous mintex pads. Mo

If only the Pretender could could have looked like that 😁 Mo

Ashcroft Transmissions. Mo

No pain no gain The more you drive it the greater the fuel saving, eroding the savings made by fitting a v8 😉

Ps don't buy the fuelling pins off a well known ebayer, they're carp! Not hardened and you can get better fuelling with the original Land Rover pin. Mo

V8s are so last year ! What you need is a nice German 6 pot diesel with a 6 or 8 speed autobox 😈 more power as standard, loads more torque and better mpg 😬 Just saying Mo

I used a dynamic timing advance ring on my 200. It was excellent, smoothing out engine vibration at high revs on the motorway. I'd absolutely recommend 👍 @92a had my injection pump after I stripped the 200 and he seemed very happy with it ! Mo

@bishbosh You're hardly a thug young Bish 🤣 Mo

OK Andy With the M57 and 6 speed auto the gearbox / transfer box mounts will go in the same place they are now which allows you to keep your propshafts. The engine mounts go where they land once your back end is located. I've used House of Torque (who are really supportive of the conversion community) for all parts excepting the mounts and adapter which were out of stock at the time and were sourced from MW (who are not). https://mwmachines.co.uk/shop/m57n-6-speed-automatic-engine-mount-kit This is a really nicely engineered and fabricated kit, easy to fit and works well using 300tdi rubbers. Select pre 300 and bolt on gearbox mounts in the drop down menus. I do have a build thread in the Members Vehicle section. HTH Mo

Andy, are you using the 6 speed auto ? Mo

Do it 😈 Mo
