you might want to think about upgrading to a rd28 a newer version of the ld 28 this is a euro engine but many are around I put one in a Cherokee I still have the template for mounting the rd28 to a Cherokee transmission if you are interested they are a fantastic engine overhead cam diesel with lots of power and they rev a lot higher too

I believe the pattern is the same as the LD. If you would share your pattern, would sure save me time on the automatic turbo swap. I plan on the RD series next time. They are in Europe and Asia. Much easier to obtain parts for. Also looking at other options..especially engines w/computer controls from asia. Need to keep weight light. Send me an email..Would really like to chat..I will phone you. Still trying to upload photos...will figure it out. Shooting for 30+gpg. Weight if Cherokee less than Datsun...drag coeficient of Maxima .41...Jeep is .51. Drug home Explorer 8.8 w/disc brakes and limited slip.

Have talked with a couple of builders
