p38 question??

[R2D2]

Hi all,

Maybe daft question but is the p38 4.0 the same engine as a 3.9 v8 efi and will a lpg system from a rrc 3.9 transfer to it?? 8-[

Thank you.

Very similar mechanically, completely different electronically.     Then there are two 'P38 4.0' versions the earlier box plenum + Lucas GEMS are different from later banana-bunch plenum + Bosch Motronic.

As for the gas, who knows?  You might have to be more specific.  If it's a single-point mixer style system, you'd probably be disappointed - they fight with the more sophisticated engine management on the later cars.

cheers, Ross K

Thanks Ross I'll have to be patient and hope someone sells an already gassed one [-o<
