    Defender 110 3.5 V8 to M62B44TU BMW engine Conversion

    Yes rooftop system is the best idea for the Defender I guess I already found a local manufacturer they are quite good at rooftop systems and also quite compact , u cannot really notice it from outside if you have good roof rack like mine. Check this out, dimentions are really compact...

    But I need an air con mate from the P38 or somewhere else, it gets over 40C outside and probably 50C in a Defender lol so I definetly need one to stay alive :))) and yes I can stick with my LT85 but my top speed is still gonna be around 75 mph coz of the gearbox even if I had 1000bhp :))

    My friend called me today he said his friend has a write off P38 RR 4.6 auto and the engine is in very good condition as he said. So does it fit to my car easily? And use my manual LT85? I am not so fun of rover engines but if it would be way easier I may consider that

    It looks so simple and do the job but full interior mod is the way to go, I think we'll find some way to fit the hoses for the aircon, but first of all I am not sure that there is enough space for the air con in the engine bay after fitting 4.4 liter BMW engine :)) because it gets over 40C...

    haha well it has been done many times, I'll for something unique and for offroading too, LS engines are good for showing off but I don't think those cars are made for true offroading, imagine I'll have around 300 bhp and still be using my LT85 gearbox :)) Btw I found a brand new dashboard, so...

    Again the same story with the TVR we don't really have such engines coz Supra never officially imported to Turkey there are only some gray market, even my GTR is not from official Nissan dealership it is gray market :) I lived in England for 5 years and I don't trust Rover engines this is why I...

    Defender 110 3.5 V8 to M62B44TU BMW engine Conversion

    Well I was hoping to keep the car looks and feel original but make it more powerful and new tech, that's why I wanted stick with the manual gearbox, but now I also consider to put L322 zf 5 speed auto from 4.4 engine which is the same BMW engine and it would fit without any problem I guess. But...
