2.5na conversion to 200tdi

In the process of this at the min would it be worth doing a write up?

Definately, as I've never got around to doing one on mine
If you think I can help with any questions just shout, I just completed mine a few weeks ago

ok will do

What stage are you at with it John?

new engine is out and on the deck, starting to cheak over.

Is it a disco or defender engine you're using?

i'm cheating and using a defender engine and box and power steering set up as well swaping it all over

That's no cheat! Using the Defender engine is what everyone would like to do, but they usually cost a massive amount more to source than the disco one!
Definately makes the job more straight forward having no downpipe clearance issues.
Have you got the Radiator and intercooler from the donor vehicle as well?

Got everything and more Pulled the 2.5 out today and droped in the 200 just starting to link everything up now hopefully fire her tommorrow.
