sweet, found one. Does a $2800 engine for a $2000 vehicle make financial sense? yes
holy **** flem. You're not seriously going to spend $2800 on a rover motor are you?
$2800 sounds steep. GEMS and 14CUX is Lucas. Bosch is on 99 and up Discovery II's and Range Rover's. it makes more low end torque, etc. the block is beefier, different front cover, oild pump, yada, yada. I think the 4.6 was 300ft/lbs at 2200 RPM. you can tell a Bosch b/c of the "thor" intake. It is the intake w/ the equal length intake runners and it looks kinda like an LS1 intake.
I rebuilt my engine in the RR for about $1100 all total. I didn't replace the pistons though and just had it honed out and out in new rings and bearings..the 4.2 I used only had like 30K miles and the cross hatch was still visible.
I don't now if you have to use a space or not. I know the bearing sizes are all different on the 4.6....go to aluminumv8.com for info on component size.
Is it sacrilege to put a rover motor on a Jeep edition credit card? :flipoff2:Quote:

grayson if I end up getting that 4.6 I'm just putting all of the 3.9 components on it, might cut the trumpets down a little bit. its only got 9k miles :D
sleeziest junkyard I've been to, told me ran it to make sure it was good, it had no belt/coolant and the radiator was smashed. Told me it was hit from the side, smashed grill and rolled over. Lied about the mileage until I pointed out the inspection sticker that had 41,000 written on it. They couldn't get it to start but I'm thinking the fuel pump sitting in the passenger seat had something to do with that.
going to go with a used block from rover cannibal.
Not to be a dick, but why not just start over?
