Default Isuzu into Defender (will it fit?)

Wondering if an Isuzu 2.8 TD motor will fit into my V8 defender should the petrol prices rise too high. I've heard that it should fit but wondering if it will bolt to my landy with a Sanata gearbox.
Thanks

There are kits to fit them,but they dont have much low down torque.Better bet is a 200/300Tdi,more a nuts/bolts conversion and less hassle with insurance companies too.
