I remember the Imps at Brands too. A nice little all aluminium engine based on the Coventry Climax. Single OHC and someone whose name I can't recall made a DOHC head for them too. Quite a potent little beast when driven "in anger" ------------------------------[ <- Message 2 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 971229 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]

What are the pros and cons to leaving it off? To shield the heat? Seriously, without it you'll notice that things get a little hotter around your feet and the engine compartment. I left mine off once and burned the rubber around the speedo cable!

Where the heck do these buggers ground? Well, I've rambled on Right hand frame rail, right where the tire will throw up all sorts of stuff... If you *really* want to fix it, run a ground wire from the battery all the way back to all the lights. Solves all sorts of problems.

How much improvement does the Chevy 6 provide? General ups and downs to the whole thing?? Thanks.. P.S. To those of you who know me, NO the chevy is not going into the pig.

Having seen and read several reports on the Chevy 6 conversion and spoken to the master Scotty himself, the ideal transplant is the 4 cyl Iron Duke. This engine provides plenty of Hp for the 109 and does not require the multitude of modifications that the longer 6 cyl does, ie not moving the radiator forward, chopping the firewall, etc. -Michael ------------------------------[ <- Message 7 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 971229 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]

What are the pros and cons to leaving it off? Peter, leave it off! The heat shield seems to weaken the exhaust man. and it breaks around the fastening points.

I have been used to driving my 109 series III 2.25 diesel and I have to say that there is a huge difference. I have to congratulate Landrover for the progress done. Any one has had similar experience.?? Also I have the above Series III for sale now. (I would like to keep both but my financial situation restricts me to one!!) Any one interested!!! Happy New year to all.
