Disco 3.9 LPG unit.

Post by Disco Gofer »

What would a 194-95 Disco 3.9 LPG set up cost with out the tank and pipes? I can get a unit out of a running Disco in Aus but obviously dont want the tank and old pipes shipped over so just the engine bay bits.

I got 94 Disco for $300 which was rear ended and am going to Bobtail it, gut it and make a closed in off roader as i already have 40 Series beast with a 350 Chevy.

Or if its cheap enough I might just on sell it and run the standard FI 3.9.V8 Dont know yet, no real advantage of going LPG on a pure off roader if its already injected i suppose.

Just thinking out loud I suppose...........

Stick with fi as you have the bitch of having drive to lpg station and tank testing , now $160 plus cert costs etc . Lpg is great if doing big miles but since it going to be a death truck why bother . I am after a 3.9 motor if selling.
