Hello all,
I have a Cresta that is waiting for a suitable V8 engine. Hopefully get some help here.
Would like to bottom out how to run a stand alone GEMS Range Rover engine or, if it cannot be done without spending big wads.
Cheers

Hi Duke!

Welcome to the forum. I'm only into carbs and dissy's. But there will be someone along soon to talk fancy electronics :)

I looked into it, and it seemed there were two choices:
- Get the ECU from a 50th anniversary Defender. That was the most basic vehicle fitted with that engine. Rare as rocking horse poop as not many were made!!
- Mark Adams. I found this looked like a very expensive route.

Upshot - I don't think there's a cheap answer.

Chris.
