You will see ;) in less than two months L-series should back on wheels with some nice changes ;) .
And next one is a 20th Camel Trophy 1998 Anniversary project ;) if everything goes well, should be ready (part or full) on 5th AUG 2018
 
Apologies for hijacking Winu's thread but I saw a reference from grumpy on 'ere about me bagging the last L series engine from Rimmers. You may want to hear how it went...It seems a while ago now but it turns out that it might have been an L series engine but it wasn't a freelander engine. After exchanging the sump and various other bits that weren't the same or weren't required, the transplant went all according to plan and all my fears went away when the engine burst into life. A marvellous feeling!
I eventually stripped the old engine and as expected the cam followers were cracked. It seems to be the only real damage. Anyway the old girl is going better than she's ever done (freelander is OK too!) 150k miles or so.

I still have the old engine it was a good un with just the cracked followers if anyone wants it they are welcome to it for the cost of collection from the South Bucks area near High Wycombe.
