Squeezing something bigger under the bonnet?

discodoobie · Apr 1, 2010

Ok, silly question time.

Ive been looking for some used parts for potentially replacing some bits I think are going to need replacing either now or in the near future. Ie; fuel pump and compressor for my TD5 disco.

Now, I came across some engines like 4.4 V8s from RR Sports and 2.7 TDV6s from D3s etc for 'average' money, lets say. Would it be a ridiculous modification to try and fit one into a D2? I cant imagine it would be easy, but is it totally impossible?

Or should I just carry on saving my pennies and get a D3 when the missus lets me?
