M&D might do one but I dread to think what it would cost. I believe if you keep your eye open, you can pick them up from some Australiam sites as the engine is pretty popular over there. I have a copy of the parts catalogue for it which has some exploded diagrams. I could make a copy for you if you like but I'm not sure how good the quality will be!

I am told the fuel pump is a rip off of the bosch unit so should be similar to tweak as a LR TDi but to be honest, I've never felt that this thing needs more power!

When the boxes needed recon.,I had final ratio changed from 1.410 to 1.22. There is plenty of power for the change and the economy and noise red uction is impressive. Work was done by landy ltd.
