Cheers Bluelarky but like you say flippin long way to go, ah well. Right my old man has got all the old tyres off this week for me while I was at work. cheers dad. so I'll be taking a couple back with me to get cleaned up. now I'm not sure if this is spammin (Slap me if it is) or not but...

Look what I've got for £20......... :D And all that bloody time I've spent cleaning and painting the SWB ones :rolleyes:

Well I've finished my coursework apart from one question :rolleyes: about bloody time too :D

So, that rules out that idea, bugger well so be it more welding haha

fooking ell, makes mine sound like a walk in the park.

Doc, I have'nt got any exams just a final assessment on my practical ablity as a Boilersmith. god help me. Nitemare, as the exhaust pipe is good all the way along apart from the tail pipe I think use it for now, its would take too long fabricate one myself, but we,ll see, I like the idea...

the daft thing is I could of finished months ago but no, me what do I do, go and a 109 hmmm priorities out the window

I've only got till the 4th of april to finish, I should get there...... hopfully....... if I was'nt muckin about with landy's :rolleyes:

Doc, Yeah I will need to modify the exhaust front pipe, as the disco one is a bigger I.D, I've read somewhere about fitting the turbo without the cooler ? or have I dreamt this ? hopefully going to get the BMC lump out tomorrow inbetween coursework and being nice to mum :rolleyes:

Doc, Im really not sure yet as to whether to have her as a TDI or a DI myself thinking TDI due to where I'll be using her the most (the hills and moors of North Yorkshire :D ) Now then Nitemare, the original mounts have gone when the BMC 2.2 was fitted, not sure what to do yet. Im just glad...

Now then Doc, Im going to use the series one, far less hassle.

PICCES !:D I've already split the gearbox as you can see for ease of unloading What do you think ? regards Chris

Hello folks, I`ve collected her from grantham and got her home !! :D weather was properly s**t !, the guys also let me cut the front 1/4 off the scrap disco chassis to use the mounting or to use as a template :D top fella's Im right happy. Picces to follow soon :) regards Chris

I've bought a 200tdi and gearbox for £450, picking it tomorrow.:D :tea: I've also sand blasted one of my wheels at work, and sprayed a coat of primer on it, the second coat, under and top coat on tomorrow afternoon. picces soon

I think I`ll wait until I`ve got a 200tdi before I look at overdrives, I`ve had another go at starting BMC 2.2, she is on the point of firing but no joy so I`ll start getting her out of the chassis ready for selling or whatever next weekend regards Chris

Also thinking a overdrive unit would be good, just they are a little pricey:rolleyes:

Hey up, folks, Nitemare, once again sir your convincing it`s for best, Id better start looking as Im nearly up to doing the front of the chassis, one thing I`ll need some 200tdi engine mounts, are they availble to buy anywere ? as the BMC ones certainly wont fit and I wouldnt trust them...

Cheers for the replys fellas. Thanks Nitemare lots of good advice there, I`ve decided to go with a 200, Im pretty sure I saw a article on Land Rover Monthly about your 109", Did you fit your 200 with a 300tdi inlet manfold and 200tdi turbo? thinking also about what you said blur beasty...

Hi fella, Im thinking about it, Im going to be doing more gentle greenlaning than anything else, and the 65 mile trip back and forth between mine and the parents, can do it in an hour and three quarters in the metro and id like it to be a similar in the landy.

Hi all, Thinking about going down the 200tdi route as It will cost around £400 to get the pump and injectors done for BMC 2.2 and even then I dont if she`s alright and I can buy a 200tdi for around £400/£500 ish what do you think? Regards Chris
