would you buy my engine?

hi chaps,so i've heard of lots of different engine transplants but hears a possibility for someone,i have a bmc/leyland/nuffeild 5.1 6 cylinder non turbo engine currently marinised (but EVERYTHING is available to de-marinise from a guy in lincolnshire who specialises in vintage truck and tractor parts).the engine is in great shape no breathing no smoke and sounds like a wounded lion,these engines were used alot in trucks and tractors,and maybe now a land rover ? if anyone is after info or wants to view let me know.

regards steve

have yu seen the For Sale section?

Do ya have a source of cheap diffs and halfshafts?? cause 1st time ya apply the power to the axles you'll need to replace em all.

Huge diesel lumps just aren't worth the hassle of sticking in a landy. Either they have so much torque they trash the drive train, gearbox etc or they were designed to produce max power at 800rpm and have a top speed of 25mph.

you need double springing for the weight of that engine, try nuffield and leyland forums.
