You guys are doing EXACTLY what I want to do to my (3) Disco's! But $38k for an engine conversion? That's about 10X what any of these trucks are actually worth...
yjmsrv 38k sounds like a lot but remember most of this comes in the form of labor. The true value is delivered in its exceptional off-road ability and performance. These trucks are keepers.
It looks like a lot...but you’re paying for a NEW car acording to what they do to it. The full conversion could be, how much, 50000? New beast reliable engine. New tiptronic auto gear box. Axles, difs, tyres, lift kit... How much is a new bmw x5?? Which one would you pick??
@@cumminsfj4586 I dunno- " Huge all round performance and mpg improvement over the old 2.5-litre Turbo Diesel unit • Still fixable in the field, DIY-friendly • Unbreakable if maintained and driven properly, capable of more than a quarter of a million miles • If neglected and worn out, it’ll keep on going, smoking and rattling • 27 to 30 mpg"- AutoExpress

Karim Alameddine fuel consumption is around 14-19L/100km. Depending on the vehicle. Unfortunately we couldn’t do this to a Discovery Series 3 due to the complexity of the electronics. Sorry.
