Hey guys,just about to fork out some big dollars on giving my rangie a new heart,thinking a new 5L Rover V8 from Davis Performance Landys.
They are expecting 40% power gains over current.

Should i go for it, or does someone have a better idea?

Marks adaptors are now doing kits to fit chev & holden engines into Land rovers!!!
Was thinking of a repower for my Disco rather than fix the original engine.
