    I have just bought a 2003 Disco V8... What am I in for??

    Hi All,

    Newbie to the forum so I thought I would say hi!

    Just bought a 2003 Disco SE V8. It has the vapour injection gas system and has had a full motor rebuild and is now stroked to a 4.6 Hi Comp. The shuttle valve has been done and overall the car is in quite good condition.

    I am sure I will be a frequent visitor to the site and hopefully it wont always be due to a problem!!

    Cheers,

    Brendon

    Hopefully years of enjoyment ...

    With more than likely the occassional frustrating moment ...

    Having a recoed 4.6 is a real bonus ...wish I had one in mine


    cheers,

    Hi Brendon,

    Is the engine fitted with top-hat cylinder liner sleeves?
