99 Disco II engine replacement

Which year engines can I put in my disco? Will the 4.6 mount up and what computer settings are required?

Thanks...chris.

Not sure about the computer settings, but you can use any D2 engine (99-04). I would avoid an 03 engine since they have the oil pump issues. If you use an '03 check that the VIN is out of the TSB range.

If you get the 4.6 you will also need the 4.6 ECU. You can get your ECU reprogrammed, but it might be cheaper to buy the 4.6 ECU, used of course.
For a drop in replacement get a 4.0 from a DII.
