I love that first photo. I know it's a bit late as the engine is in, but are you going to put some sound and heat proofing onto the bulkhead?

Well done! There's a bloke here who has a tD5 LSE that was converted by it's PO...

I've driven it and....when I win Lotto I'll do the same. As i've said many times over, it's the car that LR *should* have built, instead of persisting with that embarrassingly gutless and thirsty buick v8.
Assuming you're not tooo far along the conversion path, a Good Idea is... to leave in situ, any wires in the harness that you (think) don't need. There's no obligation to 'use' them, - can be left terminated / UNconnected...but if you find you DO need them....
Is your car on coils or Air ? - the interface between old/New and the EAS computer will be....'Interesting'. - If so, keep us posted please !
