These are great engines, thanks for your vid 😀. I just flowed a new head for my 300 TDI, ported-n-polished, swirl polished the valves too + flowed exhaust valves leading edge. She gets up a steep hill in third now, which used to need holding in 2nd gear.

Nice work!

Defenders don’t wear out they just evolve😀

Look that Power smoke!!!

I’ve been toying with the idea of an LS swap into my 90- but the 300tdi engine isn’t bad at all- it’s not going to win any speed records but it does the job just fine.

[@BorisTheDefender]

An LS would be great. Or an M57 or OM606. Also original is always nice 👍

[@overnighter]

Enjoy your new 300 Tdi 👍 ❤️

Good job 👍 !!!!!!

[@Taz6688]

May be a trick of the light but at 16.02 it looks like a crack in the join on the exhaust manifold, if it was I would think you would hear it leaking

[@brandonpatten9191]

Great work. Who did you say you got the engine from? I’m looking for a 2.5NA 12J in particular.

[@BorisTheDefender]

I think it’s in the description 👍

[@jamestayler5320]
