Don’t let Mike watch this. Lol. Great improvisation mate. Keep going. 👍🏻🙏🏽🙏🏽😷😷🦘🦘
haha He's seen it already !
Awesome!! I have been considering doing a TDI swap on my Discovery II
That would be an awesome conversion! I really like disco's! :D
Do a volvo 760 6cyl diesel d2.4t . Almost bolt in. you need volvo zf4hp22 trans to make it easier
I thought about about a transverse engine for my MGB when GM came out with their QUAD. The only thing was oil pan baffles that made it different from longitudinal. Probably brake dive.
mmm! didn't think about that!
Well done Ludy, good to have uncle Mike to mentor you. That is a big job to take on so well done.
Yeah he has definetly been a huuuuge help haha!
Ludi, very impressive work! Just watched the whole series and I have to hand it to you, great ingenuity! Best of luck, it's looking awesome.
Thanks a lot! :)
mike got me here subbed ludi
Awesome!
@@ludwigseeley6359 great content in yours just like mikes , i pressed bell for uploads will go through your other uploads when i get a chance ludi
rather than mess with the fly-by wire, find a an all mechanical pump from a Golf TD automatic, grab the pump of it.....fit a GTD boost pin, job done, one wire to the fuel shut off and accelerator cable and your done!
That would be nice!
@@ludwigseeley6359 Get a rover #00 tdi pump and use that . Mike might have a spare. You may have to open the vw mounting bracket. I put one an the AHU and worked great
@@gerardmccarthy2432 Yeah I heard of a lot of people doing that! definetly a cool option but I already figured out all of my wiring harness! so maybee on the next build ;)
Ludi if you drill out the spot welds on the slam panel / headlight box you can bolt it back it gives you so much more room to lift out the engine, the early RRC were just bolted I did this to my 91 when I fitted the 300 tdi , it more or less goes in level. keep it up it's looking good.
Yeah I noticed that on my dad's truck! But if I take the rad and intercooler out it actually comme out pretty easy!
Hi Ludi I hope you do not mind me asking enjoy looking at your videos and also seeing you helping Mike out at times but I have been wondering where are you working is it a farm or is this a little garage repairing peoples cars just out of intrest.
Glad you're enjoying the vids! It's my dad's garage!
She’s getting There Ludi, well done, I’m presuming you have tried the bonnet/hood on for top engine clearance?
Looking forward to the next video.
Cheers. 😊
No :( just looked at how high the the 300tdi is in my dad's truck!
Before you welded the engine mounts in, how did you ensure the engine would be at the correct level when the mounts were welded in with the weight of the engine on the suspension?
The engine was sitting on a strap across the frame rails, so all the weight was on the frame, then I jacked it up from under to make adjustments. Hard part was finding a happy medium with all the constraints.
That was some great creative engineering again mate. I was wondering if you would fabricate a big beam across the front to use the VW engine mounting! But those lower mounts look a great job.
And didn't that vacuum / fuel pump work out well?
Yeah the vacuum pump worked out fine! And yes I wanted to make a mount up front originaly but it takes up more space and not as good access to the belt system :)
great video, i have a range rover 1994. would love to put a diesel in it. i want to see how your power is when you are done.
Nice! Yeah can't wait to see as well!
Hey bud what motor is that?
VW 1.9 tdi...
@@AllSortsOfStuff58 why go for such a small engine. Is the power and torque output more than a pimped 300tdi? I think I was watching the vids and the motor has an ecu? So I'm guessing it's putting out some horses?
@@mattluszczak8095 I think he's eventually going to rebuild it, and I believe they can be tuned to raise power output...
@@mattluszczak8095 definetly not a power house at 90hp and 155tq! But we'll be taking care of that..
I would think you need to be careful managing the extra stress in chipping a worn engine.
