Hi all.
I have picked up an hd5 that got over heated and seized the top end.
Soooooo
I can either try to rebuild it as it is or look at fitting a 800.
I understand the defender 800 uses a separate gearbox where as the 500 uses engine/box unit.
This makes it a larger job as mounts are quite different.
However what about an outlander engine?
Is it 2 parts or 1 like the 500?
If one part would it be possible to fit the twin 800 in place of the single cylinder 500?
