Hello guys here is the start of my 6.2 diesel conversion to one of my disco II I have done one to a disco I thanks to REDROVER here on the forum but I hated the fact that there was a ton of lights on the dash and it did not have ac and at the time I lived in FL and it was a must not to mention that the rust on that one was bad so I yanked the motor and decided to rebuild it and throw it in a disco that I had with a bad motor but this time I was going to make everything work. I had another 6.2 laying around so I used it as a mock up motor while I was rebuilding the one I was going to use
So here is a list of what I am starting with
03 Disco II with old man emu 3inch lift and 33 on steelies
6.2 with 18:1 malhe ceramic coated pistons
Fluiddamper
Delta cam
ARP head studs with multi layer steel head gaskets
Pete Jackson gear drive
new casting 6.5 heads
military grade fuel pump with harden elements
p38 torque converter reworked for lower stall and front have of the p38 transmission (Dave from Ashcroft recommended this to handle the power and the p38 have the biggest converter)
This is what I plan to accomplish
6.2 turbo diesel
using the factor sensors for the water temp, oil pressure, throttle position sensor
Working ac using a Chevy ac compressor and the rest would be land rover
Using a square wave tach signal and convert it to the amplitude modulated pulse that the land rover ecm needs to be happy
Use dummy loads for the rest of the electrical components like injectors
200 amp alternator
dual batteries that will have to be relocated
hook up the existing snorkel
here are a few pics of the rebuild
