Does anyone know the difference between the Land Rover 5.0 engine and the Jag 5.0 engine? More specifically, can I use one as a long block for the other?
Long story even longer, I need to rebuild the engine in my LR4, and rather than have the car down for several months while waiting on machine work, I figured I'd just buy a long block, or a used engine as a donor. Since I'm replacing the pistons, rods, injectors.....and pretty much everything else, a cheap used engine would be fine for my rebuild.
HOWEVER, the Jag engines appear to be about $1-$2K cheaper......but as I understand it, they're the same stinking engine.....or at least the block is?....any help, advice, guidance??????
