Need to get the lump in situ in the chassis to figure a few things out so threw a used lt230q on.
Here's the Cummins 2.8 adapted to GM 6l80e 6 speed auto adapted to rover lt230. The lt230 will be mounted in the stock location.
Bolting it all together is the easy part.
We built an A-Frame that attaches on our 4 past ramp lift, so the engine can be hung in place while you work out all the mounts, exhaust, tunnel and bulkhead, and oil pan clearance without having to climb under and out and back again over and over while you cut and tack, reinstall and finally weld.
It's a good thing that UD has the skills to make this all work.
Building conversions is not trivial.
