They are quire rare but I am looking into buying one for my defender. 03:01 What spares does he take for the M57 when on his Morroccan trips? What spare sensors does he take? Preferred diagnosis tool, hoses, belts etc? 04:01 Have an early 90 (1988) chassis with no rot but some surface rust. Would recommend blasting and galv or paint? if paint what type? (Used in mostly dry weather) 04:42 Do you use the AC in your swaps? 05:25 Hi Dave, With so many LR chassis options, what is your preferred choice, and what is your opinion on heavy duty chassis, are they worth extra expense/weight over standard LR chassis 06:21 would an md57 be suitable for the 110? Asking from australia 06:50 What's BHP/torque limit on build defender axles (ATB, Pegged, 300M shafts, HD Flanges etc) before switching to Y61 axles? 08:09 ive fot a 1991 127 3.5 v8 ambulance camper and an e61 535d auto, how much do i need to save up for the conversion to happen? and whats the waiting list time? 09:23 Hi Dave, I have purchased a 2008 e70 x5 with the m57n2 306d5 (282hp) 90k miles, is that a doable swap in a 2.2 puma or have I jumped the gun buying something a little too modern compared to the iron block? 10:05 My puma 2.4 is clocking up miles and is currently sat on 130k,it's serviced every 10 000 and so on. How much life do you this engine has left in it? 11:00 I noticed you were using cardboard templates to make the carpets on this 90, have you considered a 3D digitiser to take all these measurements, then print out markers ? That way you can hold a digital library of all the vehicles you do. 11:47 Dave, how does it transfer so much power through the box into the sofa without stripping teeth and splines? So much torque! 13:17 Where is your destination? 14:10 What steering setup will you be using Normal Puma Steering box or p38 on thee B58 14:39 Hi Dave, I know you have mentioned this previously but I cannot find the video, What is the best BMW to buy for a donor M57 car, I want auto i think you said previously X5 2004? Looking to fit in Range rover classic. thanks mate. btw love your work and videos 15:36 Can you fit a TD5 bonnet to an M57 swapped Puma? Or do you need to bulge to make space for the M57? Or, alternatively, can you swap a TD5 for an M57? 16:27 A question for next time if possible, for those of us who don't have yet the pennies for a M57, what can you offer in terms of power upgrades on a 200tdi and how impactful will this feel and rough budget... Really struggling with inclines, especially if towing. 17:11 Love the channel. How much horse power can you put on a m57 without needing to beef up axel, diff etc? 18:07 Apologies if this has been asked before, but are you able to provide any guidance on how an owner would go about advising any authorities (thinking of the DVLA) of such a change. Do you provide any documentation to support the conversion that DVLA would accept, or am I worrying about something that is actually a moot point? Hopefully owners who have had this conversion done could chime in with their experience? 18:49 Do you keep traction control and off road functionality with an engine swap? Thanks in advance 19:02 Those retro headlights are amazing - can you get a 'warm' light from them rather than the usual blue-white LED? Also love the stage-one looking grille! #Mahker #Landrover #defender #landrover #defender90 #restoration #LandRover #Defender #Discovery #RangeRover #4x4 #Offroad #Chevy #Corvette #BMW M57 #LS3 #LT4 #BMWEngineSwap </video> <video> Project Cagney: The Ultimate Land Rover Defender Rebuild + Workshop Updates || Mahker 4x4 Description: Thank you for helping us reach 40,000 subscribers!
