disco brunei Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 Hi Iam new in this forum. I have an RRC 3.9 auto with faulty engine. The auto gearbox is immaculate. I also have a TDi 200 manual with faulty gearbox. My plan is to transfer the TDi engine into the RRC. I am sure this have been discussed in previous topic, but i was unable to trace them. I would appreciate if i can get your advice on the following: Is this a straight forward thing to do? What modification do i have to do? will the engine mount fit exactly? Which flywheel and starter will be used? Regards Ham from Brunei Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheltie50 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 The auto box is not really suitable as the gearing is different. You need the 200tdi engine mounts and must weld them to your chassis. The bulkhead / firewall needs to be "altered" a bit if you want to remove the rocker cover ever again, it's not much and I did mine with a persuader bar I converted my classic and really wish I had left well alone and my one has a manual box.

FridgeFreezer Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 May be better to find a Disco manual box to go with it as disco & RR have a lot in common, more than a V8 auto box does with a 200TDi anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
