1983 D110 engine swap

[mongosd2]

here's the start

 

[mongosd2]

here's what's went in...3.9 from a 1995 D1...

 

[mongosd2]

and just when you though we were done taking it apart

 

[timmy!!!!!!!]

Are you keeping the 1.6 tcase in the 110 or putting the 1.2 in it? Or if it is a 1.4 tcase and you don't want it lets talk.

Thats an lt95. A 1 piece 4 spd transmission and transfer case.

Looks like he's going in with the disco's 1.2 and auto. I 'm doing a similar swap on an 83 except I'm using a 4.2 and also converting to lhd and the later Td5 dash with all new wiring harness's and a/c.
I'm expecting lots of wiring fun on that project.

We are doing the same with the interior, td5 dash and a center console from Dave at Ashcroft Transmission. The lt95 is for sale, but I haven't done any research on it to find out about the gearing. It was working when it came out...

And the wiring shouldn't be too complicated...

Cool project Frank!

 

[Michael Slade]

I am mildly interested in that LT-95. Let me know if you want to do something with it.

I have a 3.9 sitting in my garage gathering dust that's going in my 130 at some point. Are you keeping it EFI?

 

[ipgregory]

Yes it's staying EFi and Auto.

Are you keeping it EFI?

"Mildly"...what's wrong with you son....doesn't everyone need an extra LT95

Good luck with the wiring. I don't "need" the lt95, :ylsmoke: but what are you doing with all the SU and intake bits? I do need a couple of the linkages, and stock air cleaner etc... my intake is off of rhd rover sedan, and its not quite right.

Hi Frank,

Good to see all that progress! Does the new transfer case sit farther aft?

[mongosd2]

actually dropped right in, we used the tcase mounts from the D1 and the stock bolt locations on the frame...so it does sit in the same position

Yes we are doing parallel projects. I have the console from Ashcrofts but am missing the brackets that hold the shifter underneath. Are you re- using the lt95 tunnel cover and seat box or swapping out the later r390 design ?
Asking because I haven't checked to see how the auto console fits the lt95 floor yet-its designed for the later floor/tunnel covers.
I removed a running toyota B diesel and the lt95 from the truck I'm doing sitting on a pallet if that interests anyone.
Frank if you don't mind pm me your phone number so we can compare notes.
