    Making your own engine/trans adapter plate is next level fabrication skills. I would love to a conversation like this when the 3.2 in my Isuzu trooper finally gives up, 180,000 miles and counting.

    Enjoyed the compilation. I was not subbed for early episodes and never got around to watching, so it was nice to see from the beginning!

    Epic mate in the middle of doing the same!, i can feel the blood sweat and beers that's gone into bringing this Rover back to life. Awesome effort.

    Really enjoyed watching that. I found the choice of VW diesel a bit unusual as I kinda expected a 200 or 300TDi to go in.....but well done on getting it all together. Hope it gives you years of enjoyment!

    Hi Ludwig. Amazing job on this car. I would like to ask you how are your impressions months after it was done. I have a RR Classic with a VM 2.5 engine which is running really well now, but I'm afraid one day will not, and parts are difficult to get for this engines. 1.9 tdi is easy to get and cheap here in Europe, and one of the most reliable engines ever made... but it looks like an small engine for a big car, but maybe is just a feeling. Other than the overall result, what about the consumption? TIA.

  • @alanak3210
    @alanak3210 2 роки тому +1

    Good job but I would have thought that dinky "car" diesel engine would not have much grunt in the Rangey - LR 300 tdi maybe more suitable and more horses ?

    • @ludwigseeley6359
      @ludwigseeley6359  2 роки тому

      the 300 tdi has around 120 ft/lbs of torque and same ish hp, the ALH tdi in this truck is around 270 ft/lbs of torque and 150 hp (not the stock turbo however)
