Thread: 4BD1/T vs Rover V8 County

It was fairly even although we were not testing the fact, but the Isuzu had the edge up the hills.

The 3.9's dont like tyre mods etc. I would bet the manual would handle it better.

Did your disco mate have 4.11's??

I did the running in service at 430K-its turbo and 10 psi boost.

Saying that I'm only assuming it hasn't been touched in the first 330ks as thats when i bought it. I doubt it has ever been apart, as it still had the origional air filter element in it (what was left of it) dated 1986.

Hahaha was digging through threads and thought I would have a read again...stage1 3.5v8 leg out of bed at 200k that was with my pop driving it so can only imagine the huge amount of revs he was doing
County 4bd1t that has 400k still going strong I will not hesitate to go against any NA v8 powered landy I'll run 35's to make it fair

Does that include mine?

and i can run 37s to make it fair

We can start with a few sand dune drags haha
