Someone needs to make a engine conversion kit
I need to rant for a few. With all the problems I see between all the rover forums, with the 4.0L v8 motor in particular, someone out there needs to make up a kit to adapt a GM 4.3L Vortex V6 into the Discovery chassis. All I ever see is problems with sensors, not running right, sticking valves, needing high test expensive fuel. You can find that GM motor everywhere in junk yard with low milage, it runs on cheap fuel. Just find a wrecked donor and get the motor and its computer. I love the ride and looks of my discovery, but it runs like crap, and I lack the deep pockets of many of you, or the technical expertise to figure the damn thing out. Nobody lives close and it would be over a $100 in fuel to go to Trailhead 4x4 in Cleveland to have them sort it out, besides the cost of the work. ok off rant now. Mike
