That's cool my concern was there were different variations between the two vehicles as looking for the 10p engine and one has come available but it's in a defender I'm only interested in block and head to hope I can sort something and get mine on the road soon as haven't driven it yet

hi all can anyone tell me the difference between the defender and disco td5 engine as when I ordered a head kit they asked if it was a defender or disco I thought the engines were the same can anyone enlighten me please

Hi do you still have and is it a built block ie crank Pistons bearings

Yes will need Pistons crank and head assembled just no ancillaries as have them all got new timing chain kit new head kit all service items need to get a new turbo but everything else is working

That's my kind of money I've asked most people breaking there td5 if engine for sale and theve all been bought johnlad if you could find the post I'd be grateful will ask whoever needs asking as long as it's right sort of price

Looking at a couple but there 300 miles awayish was hoping there might be a couple closish and cheap as only really need the block and head
