L series derv into Landrover

Hi all, currently own a Series 3 which weve put a Perkins Prima Turbo into. Great engine and very easy conversion from the petrol engine that was originally there.

Problem is prima stuff is getting rarer and more expensive, the fuel pump has just developed a major leak and has a major oil leak behind the cambelt cover so shes currently off the road being fixed.

This got us thinking, how easy would it be to put an L series in? Excellent engine, cheap donor cars about and parts plentiful.

We are thinking an that in the 80bhp form with mechanical pump would be the easiest route?

Has any one done this? seen some crazy guy that put one in a sherpa campervan but seemed a hell of alot of work compared to a perkins conversion?



cheers



John
