Hey just wondering how hard it would be to track down a stock landrover diesel motor for a series 3 1977 lwb landrover. I was keen on doing the 202 red motor conversion and ended up getting the adapter plate and 202 red motor but i sought of got cold feet on putting that in. Firstly because i tried putting the starter motor in and the motor has to be cut out a bit because of the adapter plate that i have is off a 179 motor and i thought they were all the same. But im thinking that i would be better off with the diesel motor because my landrover isnt a daily driver id mainly be using it for off road so i was thinking the diesel would be better suited for me.
Thanks in adavance Michael

Might be able to come up with a deal here...
Im looking at buying dobbos rover for some bits that I need that are on his vehicle and in good condition...
the diesel engine is one of those bits that are in good condition but I dont need it.
If your prepared to work with me on costs Im prepared to haul the donk out palletise it (with exhaust, most of the front and a few other bits and pieces) so it can be shipped to your door OR if your in brissy I'll even deliver it or for a few more $$ install it then recover the vehicle to your location for you to finish it off.
Ive done a very little bit of work on his vehicle to get it to the point where it will self start and stop (with a new battery) and Ive looked at what hes asked me to and what Im interested in.
ID be lying if I said it was the best little 2.25 diesel Ive ever seen but its a long shot from the worst one Ive seen that still runs.
drop pms to me or dobbo and we can work something out.
