you effricans are funny. LPG stands for liquid petrolium gas.

Think barbeque gas / propane.

BTW if you do fit this and run out coolant the converter will freeze up and you wont go anywhere. Fail safe ( well not really )

Why not source a 3.5? From what i understand they are probably the most reliable / hardest to kill of all the v8's. and as you are comming from a diesel it will have heaps of power

Hi, I have a 4.4 leyland V8 in my County and it goes really well. Mine has rover heads, EFI inlet monifold, timing cover and water pump and looks like a rover V8. Most of the brackets of a early V8 disco with V belts. The only bracket that doesn't fit is the PS pump but is easy to modify to fit. You also need sandwich plates the fit the rover manifold. The 300tdi goes well but you wont know yourself with the grunt of the 4.4
