Hi guys  :D

This is my first post in the Defender forum as I've been hanging around in the Discovery one for a while  :wink:

I'm moving home next weekend and for the first time in my life I'm going to have my very own garage! I'm sure you know what's coming next...

       (shouts)   NEW PROJECT!  

SWMBO has relented and given me permission to build an oily brute on the premises. Sweet.

Sorted out with Bobtail to pick up his 90 so I'm now looking ahead in preparation.

My question is: Should I replace the Daihatsu engine with:

A) Another Daihatsu
B) Land Rover 2.5TD
C) Sell an kidney and get a 200TDi

Does anyone on here have any experience of the Daihatsu in a 90 as I've seen a few going cheap on Ebay? Is it a huge job to swap to a TD or TDi?

Cheers for any help you can give. I'm looking forward to hanging around here in the future!
