New gearbox arrives

image image

Feeling flush I bought a new zf4hp22 from ashcroft transmissions.  One problem with the 300dti drive train is it’s long.  This new auto box incorporates a rear end from a v8 gearbox which is 40mm shorter.  It all helps (1863)

Building the new drive train

image

Invested in a 1995 landrover discovery auto.  Ripped the drive train out and scrapped the rest.

the 300tdi engine had a blown head gasket so it’s been taken all the way back to block.  Checked and then completely rebuilt.  And painted ford red.  Awesome engine porn (2292)
