tdv6 or tdv8 into a defender
« on: May 01, 2010, 01:01:22 »
Hi all does anyone know of anybody who has fitted a tdv6 or v8 into  defender if so I would be very interested in speaking to them on how they did it as I fancy doing this conversion myself, i know bells autoservices has done a tdv6 as I have seen the utube link with the engine running I have spoken to them but he wont give me any details. Any help will be appreciated :D

Cheers
