I thought there were a few differences between the V8 and isuzu LT95's that made it hard to do a straight swap. Unless you are thinking of just switching the high range gearset from the V8 box to the isuzu box.

boxes are the same, bellhousing is the only difference.

But I have now got a Isuzu work shop manual for that motor. It`s a 100 horses or 74 kilowatts . Still can`t find out what torque it produces. But it seems to be allot from the way it performs. Hmm now to start hunting down a later rangie box.

Direct injection diesels produce max 75Nm for each litre of displacement with no boost. This would put your 3.6 at around 270Nm tops.

At 3000rpm 74kw only needs 235Nm.

I thought the handbrake was different too. RR has the smaller handbrake drum with mechanical linkage. My county has a cable. Or were the earlier counties different? I want to change from lt85 to lt95 at some stage, so I'm trying to find all these things out

Your hand brake drum will mount up to the LT95 i have a disco hand brake i will be fitting to my LT95 soonish i will also use the hand lever and mount it else were so i can get more leg room

Does the disco handbrake bolt up to the 110 style speedo housing or the rangie style?
They have different bolt patterns where the backing plate mounts to.

I thought all the lt95 spedo housings were all the same the LT 95's imhave all look the same

110 and RR have different rear output housings, 110 take a larger handbrake drum with different size mounting for the backing plate, however, they are interchangeable, the output housings, not just the handbrakes
