It is currently getting the questionable accessories removed. I've decided to keep the roof lights and wire them up properly as they aren't connected to anything at the moment. The LED headlights are an acquired taste and are going and being replaced with WIPAC Crystal H4 units. The position lamps now all match - they were a mixture of RDX LED lights and normal bulbs.
It needs a good service and then it can go for MOT.

Hmm, what are you doing with the old headlights? It needs a good service and then it can go for MOT.

I am chuffed it is still going
Anyway - here is our latest build - for a Swiss client
Lovely little fully balanced V8 with Stage 1 heads and Kent H180 camshaft
Now that's my idea of a proper defender 90!I am chuffed it is still going

Can't see all the pictures though?
Not sure what it is in the photo though, it's running Defender wheel spats and front wings. And the axles look the right width. So I'm guessing it's more likely an 88" coiler. So not a Stage 1 or a 90, but a hybrid.

Do you go out of your way to disagree?

He said stage 1 heads.... Not a series 1.

My bad.Do you go out of your way to disagree?
But for reference Stage 1 (which he did say, just in a different context) is a Land Rover and isn't a Series 1.
A Stage 1 was the first V8 Land Rover built in the 1970's.

"Stage 1" in this context does not relate to the 109" with V8, but to the level the head has been modified 'tuned' in terms of performance improvement. Especially since vjj mentions it in the same sentence with a Kent cam, a modified camshaft also for performance improvement.
Yes, but that shouldn't get in the way of a good argument!Gassing Station | Land Rover | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
