A shot of the engine would be the logical choice to make a video of, not the exterior.

aren't the transmissions computer controlled? I would guess that would pretty much rule out using the stock transmission with a different motor. My guess would be, SBC + chevy driveline except for the differentials...it wouldn't be a big deal to mod the driveshafts to keep the existing diffys

I would like to see the engine... I was just thinking of swapping in a 350 when my engine dies out.. Any idea on what the guy did to do the swap? Does he have a write up somewhere?

Holy **** that is Street_Wolf. One of his profile pics on that site is his avatar.. He is on the LandRoversOnly forum. I just sent him a PM to see what is up with his 350 DII.
