No it int..

IIRC you will need to swap the flywheel housing off you 2.5 n/a engine onto the 200Tdi to make it mate to the gearbox.

You'll have to make up an exhaust, but the rest should be just nut and bolts

hi mate,

i have a d-reg NA 90 with a 200tdi conversion. I live in devon too so your welcome to come take a look. i didn't do the conversion unfortunately so haven't a clue how they did it!

i'm in south hams, give me a shout if you fancy a peak. it may be some help. probably not.

Bell housing doesn't need to be changed - even the 300tdi will mate up no bother with a few stud location swaps.

The disco 200tdi engines turbo will get in the way and hit the passenger side footwell - solutions:

Split the turbo and rotate outermost part 120deg so that it will fit, or 2 modify the footwell - some people do a nice chop and weld here - some muppets smack it with a hammer. Or you can get the defender bits - can be expensive.

Prehaps you're right (shrug)

I had to swap a 2.5 flywheel housing onto a 300Tdi to get it to fit a box (LT77 IIRC) in a 90, but that was a while ago now

thanks for all the help ive got one of these of fleebay Page Not Responding that should help out ,and yes got you pm last week thanks od , and is it best to use the disco trans box
