Slunnie - Ah yes so LC is a better option again..... hmmmm harder to find though.

XC XD XE XF;)

I realise you don;t have an engine, but you have a tough bearbag, with everything there to stick a 250 in, so stick a bloody 250 in:D

I'm sure the sound of boost in a series rover will keep you amused enough to not miss the 8:cool:

Tough bearbag? You might have to explain that one, I'm Scottish haha :D

I suppose you are right, maybe I should try that first..... hmmmmm but then a V8...... Jesus I shouldn;t have asked!!! :confused:

Old series Landy.... with a blow off valve!


Chhhhh, yeah! :D

I have two Discovery 3 TDV6 turbos, so if they are around 190hp then 2 should be good for 350bhp, will a Crossflow take that ok? Cause I don't want to be opening it up and messing with internals, otherwise I would be better with a V8.

Suppose it would be a bit different :D

Hmmm, if you joined them using a transfer case and then into an auto before exiting with another transfer case..... could work.... but you may want to consider maxidrive axles if you're using Rover axles. :lol2:

Hahaha that sounds like you want me to turn them in to Superchargers.....

Gearbag/gearbox

250 will sustain it and in OZ atleast, they're as cheap as chips, so if you change one every no and then, who cares:D

How much torque/HP do you think you're going to make with most thing

1UZ-FE is a bit of a task in regards to a conversion as the duel overhead cams on each head, see the engine width blow outand a baby windsor won;t make alot of HP stock

Yeah I see your point, I just liked the idea of lots of grunt from nothing. Turbo's always have lag, unless I get fancy and run a WRC style Anti Lag system hahaha :d Now I am just kidding.

I will look in to it some more, from what I have read so far LPG on turbo 250's is all the rage.

If you want torque at low revs the 1UZ is not for you, but it will match the 4.7 gears well, very punchy when up it and it does love a rev

Lag? pfft, don;t go oversize on the turbo and all will be well

LPG, gas research carb, boost reference the convertor...or 2 and away you go:cool:
