Thread: thirsty

I have a 91 3 door discovery 3.5v8 in excellent cond but want to fit a diesel motor to it. Does anyone know if a td5 motor will fit or has anyone heard of a 2.8 litre turbo diesel made by International in Brazil for landrovers.

That'd be me (thanks guys)

(lucky! I almost didn't read the "thirty" thread, I thought it was about beer )

Yes I import the HS2.8TGV (this is the good one, did you know there are 2 types of HS2.8? there is also wastegate version, slightly cheaper but less HP cause of wastegate type turbo, for my money not worth saving a few hundred $$ on)
anyway yes the HS2.8TGV is a brand new factory hot rodded version of the old 300 Tdi (they also still make the 300 Tdi for LR for some of the o/seas markets that don't want electronic engines?)
anyway yes they are good (very very good) & yes they are expensive $10,500 normally to public BUT $10,000 inc GST to AULRO members
(at $10k I make exactly $218 less interest on my o/draft )
I have 2 unsold engines currently in stock but once they are gone I will only be bringing in engines as ordered & after I get a deposit (by time they sit there and cost me interest I actually loose money )

there is a yahoo group with loads of info see hs2800TDI also another group a Canadian guy is getting going at www.obwcanada.com

I'm away on working holidays next 2 weeks (but will check in here occasionally) ask any questions you have but sorry If I'm a bit slow answering them

thanks
