1988 Defender 90 V8 Petrol CSW Rimini Red

Still going - the old engine is now being stripped of the bits required to be put onto the new one.

Found that the heads are for an injection engine - not a surprise for the year as the 90 was the only non-injection V8 apart from some of the first discoverys

There was also jokes about VVT - look at the slack on that chain. I'm surprised as the mileage hadn't reached 130k. No wonder they say a cam refresh is worth doing at 100k.

The old engine is going to be kept with the car to retain a semblance of originality should it be necessary in the future. 90 V8 CSW - 1988
