Land Rover - 4 cyl Upgrades
The Land Rover 4 cyl engine has a lot of potential locked away inside.
For about the same price of a set of tyres, you can fit the following to a regular 4 cyl engine and have greatly improved peformance and economy:
Peformance Cam: Better top end and torque, no loss in low end torque at all.
High Compression Cyl head : Increase compression to around 9:1 without affecting reliability
Higher flow carb like Weber 34ICH, 36 DCD or Zenith equivalent
Peformance exhaust Manifold: Branched and tuned exhaust manifold to replace the cast iron original
Free-Flow pipework and silencer : Help the engine get rid of old exhaust gasses better.
Out of the above list the cam upgrade gives the best peformance increace, the higher compression head is second in line.
The carb and exhaust mods are, however, definately worth the extra money, especially if the existing carb is a Solex.
Specs will be made available in due course
