The V8 Owners Forum -

you have 6 years from purchase to make a claim. however you would have to prove the fault.

I'm running a 5.7 twin turbo in a Dakar (RR classic) and there's a defender running a 7.6L Big block: http://mez.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=793 also one with a 5.7 chevy engine + eagle 383stoker kit, total edelbrock top end with big valve heads, 600 carb, roller rockers etc 380bhp and 450lbs torque.

fastest car at crail is Nissan GTR - 9.341 @ 160.1mph

pistons are the same AFAIK

pretty impressive for a 3.9

according to des hammils book the vast majority of late interim blocks have the large main caps of the 4.0/4.6 but the main bearing tunnel is machined for the small journal crank.

I've got a 95 disco late interim 3.9 in my 110.

thats an early interim block - later ones only had 10 bolts. both use 28cc heads with comp gaskets I have an interim 38D in my Range Rover Classic, cross bolt pads, with no bolts and non crossbolt main bearing clamps. (38D low comp 8.13:1 cr, 36D are 9.35:1 cr) Although has high comp pistons now The...

who did them

doubt you'd see any difference TBH unless you are heavier on your right foot

I'd fit the 4.6 - the extra torque will be better with the auto.

No idea Dave, I did it on a 4.7 (bored 4.6!). Reckon there was a lot more grunt at low rpm's which was what I wanted as it was in a 4-speed auto 110 weighing 3.4 tons! It seemed to run out of steam at around 4400rpm but that could have been cam choice as much as anything I reckon. I fancy trying a ...

Thor only has one AFM

what sort of power are you running without the N2O?

get in on a rolling road to set it up and you may see more and get an accurate reading of power. The cam is very good for on road - and is ok for off road - perhaps a purist would want more lower down grunt but my 90 is light and it does fine, i like cross country / mild hilly off road as opposed to...

how do you find the H404 cam with a landrover?

you could change to injectors and MS to get more power - would have thought you would have more than 293hp with your set up.


I'd like to get more out of the 3.9 in my 110 but not got the cash sadly
