Hi just wondering if anyone would know if a 3 litre diesel turbo would be any good on an 80 series 4.2 litre diesel.
I have a 91 80 series with 350,000 on the clock. Also if any info on whether the motor will handle it??
Any info would be greatful

To make a swap ..

In numbers it looks like gonna function, but IMOP you would need to rev it up to much to keep moving hard .. aren't your best option anycase.
