  1. The Rover P4 used the 2.25 petrol and a teacher at my old school had a P4 with a Land rover diesel fitted.

    If the axels, gearbox are from a Land Rover then you can expect the same road speed as the donor land rover. You may have better acceleration in the lighter car but If you want the best cruising speed you'd also have to fit tyres of the same size or larger to the car and/or fit higher ratio diffs.

    Why not keep the cars axels? mind you, knowing what the car is, what axels it has, etc would help.

    baxicly i have an russian jepp that was combined with an landrover , an old farmer han a landrover wich he flipped ower so the boddy was to messed up to fix and he had an gaz 69 with a good body and chassis but no axles or drivetrain of any sort so he took axles and drivetrain from the landy wreck and used the gas body

  2. If I'm reading your post correctly you want to know the top speed of an unspecified car that will be using a LR engine?

    Whole lot more of information needed there including gear box ratios, diff ratio, tyre sizes etc, etc...

    i acidently eraised part of my message in general the car has axles and drivetrain from a landrover just a diffrent chassis and body sorry for lack of information

  3. thanks a lot for this i will have a hard look at this , but the traveling speed what can i expect the 2,25 engine to perform as it is not going to be in an landrover the engine was put in another car i am restoring and the old lr engine was rusted stuck so i am on the look out for a new one and my car is 1700 kg if that has any efect
