Now to grab the hood scoop off a Subaru and fit it backwards to cover up the holes . And add a snorkel intake and an exhaust that won’t gas you with the windows closed.
Just picked up my first disco2 for the wife. I was thinking an LS swap now I'm torn being a diesel man myself. The 4bt looks good in there. Props on the craftsmanship! Keep up the work!
Thanks! And an LS would be a great choice too. Look up AC engineering if you're looking for a kit, since I think they're kit now fully works with all the OE electrics.

And maybe if the border opens up I might see you out at silver lake lol
Mine was a pretty toasty runner too, but this diesel runs crazy cool... it's bonkers that you can just grab hold of the exhaust manifold right after running or when it's idling!

Sweet men good job very clean job 👏. I like it i go Off road as well i had and 1996 4.0L V8 disco 1 sold it now bought an 2000 discovery 2 td5 tuned it to stage 2 with full exhaust is a beast but yours is so much powerful that I'm thinking now I need more than stage 2 hahahahaha
Very nice work. At least from here it looks great. Maybe you should just cut out for exhaust floppy so you wont have to take it off every time? I don't know. I need to put a floppy on my tractor. A can starts to look ghetto after awhile.

What diesel engine would you consider for another Disco diesel swap? 4BTs are getting more expensive. How about ISB170 (common-rail 4BT), Isuzu 4BD1T or equivalent Nissan or Mitsubishi (SAE 3 bell housings)? I'm uncomfortable dropping $9,000 plus for R2.8, given the poor reputation of the ISF 2.8 overseas. How important is a 100% mechanical diesel to you?
@@Tinker1837 Problems I've had with my Mercedes om612 (2.7 CRD) engine in my Euro 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee (om612 is factory): o-rings leaking air in - causing no-start, OEM replacement starters intermittently grinding instead of engaging, "black death" injector seal leakage, variable-vane turbo actuator failure, power steering push-in connectors failing, intermittent codes being set - causing limp mode (2nd gear-only operation). It is smoother than a 4 and 163hp is plenty and it's quiet (can forget it's a diesel). Problems I've had with my Cummins 4BT in my 1983 FJ60 (a swap): mechanical lift pump failed, causing low boost, hard starting below 30F (no grid heater). A 4BT shakes, even with hydraulic mounts but torque is outstanding and hp is adequate. It is my back-up for my Jeep, which I have been driving (the Toyota) for months at a time because my mechanic entered retirement. So, I'm wondering if the Cummins ISB 170 (common-rail 4BT) will be as reliable with its computer usually mounted on the side of the block and with the fly-by-wire throttle. System uses Cummins Insight scanner that's proprietary. How do you trouble shoot without just "firing the parts cannon at it"?
Hey man, I’ve been following the build since you started, and it looks so sick! I’m in Michigan too, and I have an OM617 swapped Jeep TJ, I’d love to come talk to you about your build and shoot a feature on it if you’re down! Shoot me a message!
Thanks and yeah that could be fun! This summer it should be nearing "finished" ...as far as a project like this is ever really finished, but at least complete enough to be worth showing off 😁
@@Tinker1837 I hear you, mines 95% done, still working out a couple kinks but I’m heading up to drummond this weekend to trail guide for the jeep jamboree so it’ll be a trial by fire! Shoot me an email or an Instagram dm or something!
Hell yeah, you can bet I'm chomping at the bit to get back up Drummond again with this thing after all this work. I was constantly on edge being that far out in nowhere with the old Rover engine, just didn't want to push my luck with that ticking time bomb. Will do & have fun exploring up there!
More in nearly every way! -BETTER: Triple the torque, double the miles per gallon, more horsepower, power much lower in the RPM range, much colder running, simpler and cheaper to work on in every way. -WORSE: Weight, noise, and odors haha!
I've done LOTS and started on a few new projects even. Too much maybe because sadly it's left very little time for editing 😔 Going to need to do a whole video just on the updates before I get back into the Rover series.
I'm definitely too busy to do another, but I would say it's safe to assume about $5k if you do ALL the work yourself & keep it simple, but to do it like mine with all the upgrades it's near double. Engine prices have risen quite a bit too, which can complicate guessing swap cost.
@@Tinker1837 well I'd more than willing to pay that price if you did the conversion on mine, I wouldn't even know where to begin if I attempted it myself. I don't have a shop or knowledge to do what you did. But yeah I'm just intrigued and envious of your build.
@@Tinker1837 yeah I'd be more than willing to pay that. I understand that isn't cheap. I just appreciate the work you do/did on your Disco and why buy a new V8 for $5000 when I can find a used 4bt, rebuild that and wait for more funds
Fair enough! The "stack" seems to be polarizing, people love it or hate it. But either way it's just a temporary fix before I build a full stainless setup (muffler and all that).
Seriously speaking add a EGR system and oxygen control unit and sensors to maintain engine cool and to get more mileage and more engine life and less smoke and less engine noise
earlier I asked you what you would do with the hood and you said you have a good idea. I don't like your idea at all. such low exhaust with diesel engine..... windshield always will be dirty and you cut off part of the amplifier of the hood just that the rubber hose does not rub against it..... I thought you'd build a better exhaust and intake system's

Also Being a Florida boy I’m like “Ditch the heater grid”. That would gain him the needed space but I don’t think thats a option for him. Sometimes cutting the hood is a better option then try to change/redo things that are already fleshed out, done, and working.
@@timwright848 So you should know the Disco's engine bay + how tall the B-series engines are, because the oil pan is nearly touching the front differential housing...
@@jamescharron4535 I went mid-high mount turbo to clear the vertical oil filter housing + alternator, also planning ahead for compounds ;) Ah yeah where I plan to wander, not only will I need the grid heater... but also the block heater + oil pan heater + fuel tank heater haha! Only options to go lower would be a body lift or dry sump oiling (which could be super cool).
Why do you take months to create an awsome car an then in the final moments deside to put the f-ing exhaust out the hood. With your skill it would not take much to make a good one under the car. Love the build by the way. It just grinds my gears when you americans just vents it out the hood.
Woah there, pump the brakes. Final moments? Hardly! It was a joke (same as the silly house light switches to start it) before building the full exhaust under the Disco. Don't make assumptions and you won't find yourself getting worked up over nothing 👍

Im curious with the exhaust, there’s no more clearance underneath the Disco?
There is some, not a lot, but some. This exhaust is temporary.
@@Tinker1837 might also considering a fake hood scoop to try hide the pipes?
Maybe! I had an idea involving a cowl and some vintage parts ;)

Also Being a Florida boy I’m like “Ditch the heater grid”. That would gain him the needed space but I don’t think thats a option for him.
Sometimes cutting the hood is a better option then try to change/redo things that are already fleshed out, done, and working.
@@timwright848 So you should know the Disco's engine bay + how tall the B-series engines are, because the oil pan is nearly touching the front differential housing...
@@jamescharron4535 I went mid-high mount turbo to clear the vertical oil filter housing + alternator, also planning ahead for compounds ;) Ah yeah where I plan to wander, not only will I need the grid heater... but also the block heater + oil pan heater + fuel tank heater haha! Only options to go lower would be a body lift or dry sump oiling (which could be super cool).
Why do you take months to create an awsome car an then in the final moments deside to put the f-ing exhaust out the hood. With your skill it would not take much to make a good one under the car. Love the build by the way. It just grinds my gears when you americans just vents it out the hood.
Woah there, pump the brakes. Final moments? Hardly! It was a joke (same as the silly house light switches to start it) before building the full exhaust under the Disco. Don't make assumptions and you won't find yourself getting worked up over nothing 👍
