Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I just took the original 2 barrel leyland manifold off my car with the twin stroms and ali V adapter plate already on it! Bolt in bolt out! Should a sold it to ya and saved ya the time!

Matta

BigBad, the P76 with the twin stroms gave me 25ltr to the 100K so it was shocking before I did the conversion. I am confident the new configuration will give me far better economy due to more effecient injection!

Matta

My holley projection and manifold gave me 2000rpm more! Wo.. Just need to increase my fuel line int diam as I am starving fuel at max pedal!

My 4.4 (now 5L) runs the std manifold and twin carb set up and will run upside down on hills. It is rejetted though to try and increase HP.
However, this weekend I am putting on a brand new WILLPOWER manifold to suit a 4 barrel and bolting in a Holley Projection Unit. Should go like the clappers ...

I need to find out were I can buy an aftermarket AC ofr my old 2 door rangie,. My compressor is fne but teh rest is foobar! I know teh hot rod guys get em for there projects but I can;t find em...

Brisbane or Goldy preferred.

Matt

If anyone has or knows where I can get a 4 barrel manifold for a P76 can they let me know. I'm thinking fo running Holley Projection!

Matta

Could you send me some photos and a pm on idea of how much your chasing for them?

Matt

Your advice please...I have recently fitted a high mount winch to my 77 2 door. To fit it into the grill I had to remove the thermo fan which sucks air into the AC Condensor. Although I live in QLD the Rangie is not a daily driver and the AC has no gas and as its the old gas "may" be quite an ...

Hi RROVER85. I've got one as you noticed.. I'm having a winch bar sent up from Melbourne for bugger all.. if your interested let me know. It's already off my rig in prep for the new winch bar. I can email ya a photo of your interested. Straight as..perfect nick!

Matt Gold Coast.

P.s. I have a ...

Yeah fair enough...It's all relative I guess. Having not driven a RR with a Toyo I can't comment as such but it sure sounds like you have your beast set up very well....

I'd rather have my 8000rpm 1uZ screaming in my AC than my Rangie but......bloody axles!!!!!!!

MATTA

Hi all...I've been watching this thread for a while. My Rangie has a P76 4.4 bored out to 5.0L and I love it. Sure its an old conversion but its fairly easy, has great TORQUE and Revs hard.... Really pleased with it. My perfect 3.5 is still in my shed but the biiger cubes are great. I also have the ...

Anthony....geez mate...all this talk about diffs and dollars and you can't even buy yourself a new alternator??? Mate' ya win the lotto...

Matt

Anthony, I've got one that might get yu out of trouble for a little while. I had it on my 4.4 but then put a 100amper on it. I can't say its great but it works....Come around and have alook if you like... Probably just need to get a sparky to change the rear conectors if required for $20.00 or so ...

Get onto Simo63 on this site. His comp rangie had a ZF and manual kickdown on a holley. 350 I think...

matta GOLD COST

Hi all, I just popped into ARB Northside and had one quoted (BUSHRANGER) for $399.00.........

Any ideas on who does better. Seems a little steeper than what others have paid??

MATT

Dear Forumers

It seems that probably one of THE MOST common failures with the old 10 spliner axles while 4Bing in the bush is the axle/uni/C&P failure. Can someone post up on the forum a quick step by step guide for both front and rear diffs on how to assess, recover, and if possible get the car ...

Hi All..Some advice. Recently had my rangie checked my auto lecky regarding wiring etc and to see if the alternator was charging correctly..All is fine and the beast goes well,

HOWEVER

The other night I was driving home and noticed the blinkers wouldn't work while stopped at the lights.....I ...

Heh Locknut. I was thinking of doing exactly what you've done. Would you be able to post up a diagram or even a bit more detail as to how you have done this. I get the positive bit off the fan, but how have you wired in your relay to dash mounted switch etc.

Any advice would be awesome.

Thanks ...

$'s depend on what you need. But mine cost me $260.00 for what I needed turn key...

I'm sure you could source cheaper if you bought all the parts yourself but I neither have the time nor the energy. Seeing now what the kit has I would probably next time still go the way I did. At least this ...

For anyone interested...

Purchased the following:

15 x 7 Heavy Duty Engine Oil cooler and remote oil filter for Z9 or similar set up...

AMAZING! Found one! OIL COOLER 15 x 7 inch with Z9 adaptor and remote filter kit adaptor! All I need to add is 1/2 an IQ and a drill bit and screw driver. All for the princely sum of $266.00.

And where? Well the internet my friends. 2 phone calls and it will arrive on my door step tomorrow ...

Dude not trying to do it on the cheap! Just trying to find someone who can guide me in the right direction when it comes to rover motors. The amount of people that have said "A P76 in a Range Rover, geez mate can't help ya!"
Ya kidding me, it runs the most common oil filter on the planet (Z9). Is ...

Hi All! Well the search continues.... You wouldn't think it would be sooo bloody hard....
So far I have done the Moss Street jig and had no real luck.
Slacks Creek Rad can get me an aftermarket off a mitso then I have to work out the plumbing after that. $140 plus plumbing.
Autobahn...useless ...

From what I know it is a definite NO to remove the thermostat. I have read nothing will wear a motor out more than by doing this. Something to do with failing to allow the motor to heat correctly and causing major wear issues....
Check your thermostat is rated at 180 degree. Check the bottom of ...

Hi all. just thought I'd drop a line and let ya all know how the conversion is going...
Well, pretty much sorted the heat issue. Buggered thermostat and viscous fan coupling. Replaced both with new and she is now running cool. The engine Oil temp still gets a little warmish but I'll rectify that ...

An update for you all! OK, firstly I reckon the old 7 blade viscous hub fan jobby is well and truly rooted. It stays the same spin tolerance whether its cold or 130 degrees. So its coming off. Will investigate a new viscous coupling hub but this time of year looks unlikely so I might have to use a ...

I want to set up an oil cooler on my P76 Rangie. I'm in Brisbane. Where do I buy a good one and how hard is it to fit. Appox $'s etc.
MATTA

OK. Got the old girl engineered at Chapmans at Cooroy on the Sunny Coast. Nice guy, very strict but does things right. I also got my seatbelts done too as I have changed the front seets to full RECARO buckets and put the retyractable seatbelts off the C pillar. For the engine and belts it cost me ...

High all! Well the timimg to resurect this post is profound as on the weekend the P76 went in! All in all I'm very happy with the conversion.. Took us 6 hours to remove the old motor and place in the new. Then the next day we fitted off all the ancillory stuff etc etc. No real dramas in the fitting ...
