As mentioned on another thread I'm seriously considering swapping the V8 in my 110 for a Tdi. As much as I love the V8 with the cost of LPG rising much faster than the cost of diesel and the lack of range and places to fill up, combined with the fact that both the engine and the LPG kit are getting a bit tired I am starting to consider a swap.
I'm after a bit of advice as to the easiest and cheapest way to do this. I'm not after anything fancy, just something that works within reason as cheaply as possible as funds are very limited at the moment.
Am I right in thinking that the gearbox input shaft is different between a V8 and a Tdi? If so presumably the gearbox will need changing too. If that is right then is the easiest path going to be to get a rotten old Disco and just swap the whole engine/box/xferbox assembly out of it into the 110? Which, if any, of the engine and gearbox mounts on the chassis would need altering?
TIA,
Paul
