40k for a shop to fully handle the swap, who has the expertise is a very fair figure. While I’m sure you could find another shop to do it cheaper initially. They will be learning as they go, and there will be endless teething issues along the way which will drive costs up. I’ve learned, you never actually save money doing that. Just suck it up, and pay the experts.
I had a m57 in my e53 x5 2005, picked the car up at 53000 got rid of it at 147000 miles used it for towing a big caravan for 10 years fantastic engine you will struggle to kill it never failed to start out broke down
The other thing that's an advantage with the M57 is that it's only 13 mm (0.5 in) longer than a Td5, despite the extra cylinder. The Ineos Grenadier uses the B57 by the way, which is a lot better than the N57.
Bombproof super reliable and never seen one die.........let me know if you know of one that has and it will probably have more than 500k on it. Next breath "we fully rebuild all of ours, and if you consider fitting a second hand unit make sure it has less than 100k" Either they are reliable and can easily do 500k (at which point throw a 300k engine in knowing it will last another 200k" or low miles are important? I am getting mixed signals all the way through this video.
Dave, you and your staff build some amazing Land Rovers. We can't source newer Land Rovers here in the US so some have bought into the world of Ineos. The Grenadier uses the B58 in The United States and and as a owner the the Ineos seems to be a good truck. I enjoy watching your videos and seeing some really nice Land Rover builds.
Bloody hell Dave, some incredible stats and facts in this episode, I’ve had a few 3.0 S6 BMW cars and can certainly attest to their reliability in the original form…would love to put the 400hp version in the Wolf with an auto box but £40k is indeed a hefty price tag, but worth it IMHO, will you take kidney in part exchange, 1 careful owner, vgc, probably over a million miles by now though 😂 ❤ Mahker
Dave, Just brilliant. Can you/will you ship a complete engine and ancillaries overseas? What is the cost, excluding the labour associated with installation? Thanks again.
Would you prepare a Range Rover classic ready to be converted to electric? Most EV converters will do the EV conversion but won’t do any chassis work, upgrade suspension, axel refurbs body work etc. A Tesla 3 motor centrally mounted with a 100KWh battery over an M57 all day long for me. 😉💪
why you do the m57 swaps , do you change or upgrade parts on the drivetrain or they remain stock ? and also what do you think about the 184hp engine m57 thats also with a iron block
May be a bit of a stupid question, but feels as if we may be getting shafted soon for older diesel vehicles. Would there be any possibility of a similar bmw in-line 6 petrol version. Aware you do big v8s that are petrol, feel in some cases that may be a bit excessive for certain circumstances.
Apologies if this has been asked before, but are you able to provide any guidance on how an owner would go about advising any authorities (thinking of the DVLA) of such a change. Do you provide any documentation to support the conversion that the DVLA would accept, or am I worrying about something that is actually a moot point? Hopefully owners who have had this conversion done could chime in with their experience?
Thanks for the video. I was interested with the bmw engine who seems very reliable. But 30.000 lst is what I did pay for my defender 110 with puma 2.2 in 2012 now 240.000km ... unfortunaly, I do not have the money. I am not sure this litle modification would be permited in Belgium.
@@Robjud-u2x unfortunately it’s not something we’ve tried they die behind a tuned td5 so not even contemplating it. We move the mt82 it’s why we invested thousands into developing our adapter.
Hi, I dropped an enquiry on your website, no response. Well, I need to know how much an M57 2.5 meshed with ashcroft 6 speed gearbox with wiring harnesses plug and play delivery to Zambia Ndola. How much would this cost?

Thanks to you defender boys for the info as I am now shoehorning an M57 into a 1964 MK2 Jaguar....

@@BigpopsyX5 now that’s great feedback we love the 57 for reliably we rarely get a warrenty claim on the m57 swaps ☝️

The M57 actually has the cast iron block and single turbo which makes it far more reliable then the aluminium N57
@@liamfitzgerald8557 The M57TU2 also uses an aluminium block, and the TOP versions of the TU and TU2 have twin turbos.

Great vid Dave. Can’t wait to join the queue 👍
Okay... fifty gees baby - I need to sort the rust, and a chassis swap - but I do see my going for an M57 at some point. Or a V8 for the noise.
Interesting to see you mention the Grenadier. I would think Grenadier owners would be very interested is some of the things you could offer.
@@philipkearns9757 we plan to offer tuning options and upgrades soon.

Is it the same engine that’s in a L322 TD6?
Brilliant. Have you thought of trying a Ford 6r80 trans? IMO automatics are far superior for off roading.
Why bother with the Ford when the M57 is commonly bolted to (from factory) the ZF 6 speed that that Ford box is based on….
Love these videos first off. second thing can this be done in a D2 in the states? prefer an automatic but otherwise I do enjoy these
What a shame, we can t swap motor in France ;( u'r lucky in UK !
Do you have experience with OM606 and mechanical pump?
Dave,
Just brilliant.

So what engine mounts do you use?
Great info! Anyone ever done a m57 in a P38? Just wondering what tranny to use etc.
would a md57 be suitable for the 110? Asking from australia
Question answered in this weeks Q and A which is up now
Probably a dumb question but will ask it anyway; can you swap a M54 engine into a landrover defender 110 puma?
How does an r380 handle the m57? Can it reliably handle a standard 184 variant?

great engines but i have managed to blow up an m57 in my 325d. ran off its own oil, my own fault tbh but not impossible to blow them up 😂
