Default Fitting a 200TDi into a 1981 Range Rover


Hello!

having read in many articles both on the web and magazines, the 200Tdi
engine is definatly the way to go when changing a thirsty V8 to
diesel...

Before I take on this task on my 1981 RRc V8, I've got a few questions
which I cannot find answers to:

1) What sort of money should I expect to pay for a 200Tdi engine?

2) is there, either on the web, or been published in a mag, any
detailed instructions on changing a V8 to a diesel?

3) I understand the engine mounts need to be moved. are there any other
parts that need to be altered to get it to fit, or any parts that also
need, and if so where to get them from, ie, exhaust, etc...

4) will I need to change the fuel tank? my RRc is one of the old carb
models with just a single line coming out of the tank - no fuel return.


5) Electrics. Is there going to be a load of wiring to do or is it only
the basics?

Any other help would be greatly appreciated!


ta'

Matt
