puddlejumper Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Hi Folks The 200tdi engine in my 90 blew up yesterday. I have a 300tdi from a disco and was hopeful it would just fit in??? (Also got radiator etc) Is there anything I need to know other than boolt it all together?? thanks folks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjolliffe Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Sorry mate but it wont bolt straight in. You have to change chassis mounts ect. I dont know too much about this conversion as I have never done it. I'm sure uncle Les or someone will be along soon to tell you exactly what is involved.

western Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 a 300Tdi will connect to yourexsiting LT77 gearbox & by using mounts from your dead engine will fit into your 90. 300Tdi to LT77 main gearbox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discobasher Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Ive done a 300 conversion on mine and it aint as bad as some think. Engine mounts need to be moved back and new hoses made up and the viscious fan is to big so remove it and fit a leccy one. Fabricate an exhaust wire it up, Sort out the fuel lines and jobs a goodun. Where are you mate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
