    TDV8 Defender

    From: TDV8 Into a 100"defender. - LR4x4 - The Land Rover Forum

    Here is a sneek preview of the TDV8 engine and D3 6 speed manual box with a LT230 defender transfer box we are fitting into a 100" defender smile.gif

    The video is crap quality as its on a phone but ill upload some better ones soon.
    Just does go to show anything is possibile and you can get the engine runing out of the car even tho people say its not possibile smile.gif

    Lots more work to come yet sad.gif

    BAS, have you got plans to expand the range of vehicles that you install the TDV8 into or for producing a generic installation kit. Well done on the pioneering once again!
    Cheers
