1983 Land Rover 110 with the 4cyl petrol - Engine advice

16 Years on ExPo. Whoa!!
If you're realistic about the diesel swap (costs, time, difficulties etc) it would be a great candidate.. It will be painful though...

I have converted 2.25 petrols to 200 tdi in a day so its a very easy swap.
I'm only 45 mins or so from this truck if you would like someone to look it over for you to feel better about your purchase.
Sent you a pm offering to do so.
Cheers

To some of us the slow aspect of the Land Rover is a plus-for me it forces me to slow down (literally) and enjoy what is around me. Life moves too fast sometimes.


Bingo. I have driven my Series all over and nothing is finer that a peaceful ride with the top off and no radio.

Oh and to the OP. If you are 2,000 miles away ship it. You'll spend more in fuel and flights than a shipper would cost.

I was getting quoted $1200 to ship it, A plane ticket is ~$300, and fuel will be about $300. So that's half the cost, and I get the journey... which is the real reason for the pick up :D

I'm having a hard time finding the right 110 :(

Maryland 110, is it the same for a '64 109? Is it sacrilege to even contemplate repowering a 109 SW? It is by no means original, in fact it was drug out of a field mostly in parts. It is now on a rovers north built chasis with rebuilt engine.

I took an 1984 V8 petrol 110 across the country. The truck actually made the trip TWICE!

Also, fly southwest as they do not surcharge for one way tickets.

yeah but you broke it a couple of times running the crap out of it. That 110 has a lot of history....think he wants to sell it for about $10k. I think it would do the East>West trip again, as is.
