    Engine later model swap

    Swapping a V8 out of a 2004 model into my 1999 and have noticed a few things are different. Can I use the engine loom off the 2004 with my 1999 ECM?
    Cheers Stuart

    If you fit a later engine, the car will have to meet the emission standards for the later model.

    In NSW you can fit a 4.6 from a p38a into a Disco 3.9 and it only has to be checked by a Blue Slip inspector, as it falls under the same series of engines and the less than 20% increase in capacity.

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    should be the same loom,,
    as for the different ECM's, you'll need to look at the part numbers
