Who would buy a brand new one?
I tried to find a brand new crate block. I couldn't locate one though I did stumble on one after I started the conversion. I ended up with a remanufactured block from Turner and it showed up with a rocker arm assembly that looked like this:
They did eventually make things right but it was a pain in the ass and I would still have bought a brand new block and heads if one had been available at the time.
Well..... if I had the time , I wouldn't need the money---if I had the money, I wouldn't need the time---
Where'd I see that?
Anywhoo...I got my Tdi and diesel ZF for 4900 and I did the install which took forever.
If there's a next time, I'll do a manual trans.

The engines make heat, but in a defender there are just too many places for the cold air to get in and for the heat to escape before warming up cabin...
If you consistently got 27 you did not consistently do 75
After a midnight run around some mountains in northern Nevada at about 0°F in Chris' Defender, I'll vouch for this. It blew what might have been construed as a hint of warm-ish air when going up hill. For all other circumstances - hope you brought gloves and a hat.
Chris, did you ever do the VNT?
