There is a growing number of people fitting BMW M57 3.0d engines into land rovers, could be worth a look.
Not for me really, a bit expensive, and still got the electronics (although to a lesser extent, I think)100SRV said:
I was half joking but it's as easy to break a halfshaft with a 2286 as it is a V8 ;-)
300TDi would definitely benefit from a wider torque spread though, my 110 CSW is only just adequately powered when empty.
I've fitted an Allisport intercooler, increased the boost a touch to 0.95 Bar and rotated the boost compensator pin.
It really needs a VNT as the next step.
Any idea how much power its making?300TDi would definitely benefit from a wider torque spread though, my 110 CSW is only just adequately powered when empty.

I did enquire about a 300tdi disco the other day, the seller said he had tweaked the various screws a bit reckoned it was quither than a mapped TD5, 190hp. Safe to say he was absolutely full of crap, and I didnt buy it.

another two engines that are worth a look is the Cummins 6BT engine from a lorry which is common amongst some and the merc om605 or OM606 engine.
The Cummins engine is so heavy that the weight of the engine, a tank of fuel and a sizeable chap like me in the drivers seat leaves almost no payload.As for the OM606/605, I love it. Its just so expensive, it would cost at least double the value of a tidy 300tdi just to have the conversion done.
