Cheers for the reply, I've got the D2 with buggered engine. Richard, when you say all the ancillary bits to go with auxilliary bits what do you mean cheers paul

Hi all, Would a TD5 out of a defender fit into a disco II and would all the aux bits n pieces fit + gearbox cheers for any help paul

Cheers ratty, that looks like option No5, 1600 quid all in, including pickup and del. They've got there own web site nationalenginecentre.co.uk. Has anybody used them. cheers paul

HI all, As said in last post got a cracked cylinder head (No 1 port) was going to buy new head + fitting kit from turner eng £1500, but now the heads come off No 1 + No 2 pistons shot and the inside of No 1 barrel shot, so my options now 1. new engine from turners £4000 + labour? 2. second...

had a few more quotes in £2500 , £2000 ,£1000 and £800. The £800 one is using a new cylinder head that was fitted to a disco and then a conrod went so its only done a 1000 miles. As for doing it myself, I wish I could Cheers Paul

Cheers Pete, had a quick look on google and it sounds like its better for petrols rather than a diesel with all the pressure involved. Just had one quote back £2500 using new cylinder head rather than recon which he didn't think are a good option. Oh well its only money !!!

Hi all, Just been told by my local garage that I've got a cracked cylinder head, about to phone around for prices, anyone know of a good land rover garage in the southeast cornwall / west devon area's Cheers Paul :(
