LDV Landy engine?
« on: May 28, 2005, 22:12:08 »
Working 3rd hand here, but been told that someone has an LDV/Freight rover, with a Land Rover engine in it. On about a G reg I think, does this sound like a 2.5 natural aspirated defender type engine here?

Van crackered but good engine, also anybody idea what box would it have in it, not able to see it yet, trying to sort it out over the weekend for a look

Same basic engine, as far as I'm aware.
Some ancillaries maybe differant.

If it's going for bits, then if it's a 200 series RHD, can I put in a bid for the power steering box?

Thanks!

As soon as I get to see the thing, I'll know better which model it is, 200/400 haven't got a clue at the moment
