Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Mockup 4.4 with HEI and 450 holley - yahoo, uploads working again!

Looking good.

My P76 Conversion is coming along nicely, just fitted it to Tghomas this arvo. have yet to get to going but the 'hard' work is all done

Here's a pic of the flywheel adaptor I had made. Cost about $300 inc. the spigot I had made to suit the Leyland which is also bigger.

In all honesty I really didn't klnow anyone had them especially for a ZF auto so that's the reason I had this made

I don't think $300 is not overly expensive considering I got the Rangie 'donor' vehicle for a grand, sold the tyres, rims and the 3.5 and still ended up $100 in front after purchase plus there's still many bits to sell so it's been pretty cheap so far.

Now that I know TTC sell them I'll point people in that direction if they're gioing to do the same thing.

Trav, shouldnt the spigot hole in the adapter be the same as the rover one and then a reducing collar to fit into the 4.4 crank ? Can you post a pic of the new spigot.

Thanks,
Nick.

Haven't got a pic of it but yes, I had a 'collar' made to suit probably didn't explain it right again ).

Will take a pic somtime tomorrow and post it on here

PS- Forgot to take one prior to fitting the 4.4, now fitted obviously not possible

Anyone know what can i use as a replacement for the thermostat housing on the 4.4 manifold that will angle towards the inlet of the rangie radiator, and while i'm at it will a rad from a 3.9 rangie/ disco cool a 4.4 effectively ?

When i did my 4.4 i also upgraded my 3.5 radiator to a 3.9 one and also utilised the optional oil cooler available for the 3.9.

So far i have had no dramas, i have never seen it push beyond about 94 degrees working hard.

I used a 302 windsor thermostat housing, bit short but the standard hose reaches fine.
