Hi im new here and looking for some help. I have a 2012 rr sport supercharged 5.0 that suddenly developed a rod knock i pulled the spark plugs in search of the culprit piston sure enough i found and confirmed that one has play , upon doing this i also found that the time must have jumped by a few teeth , my question is ,one how can both these failures occur at the same time and 2 is can i use an engine block from a non supercharged model thanks

 

You should call RoverPartsDepo.com on the service line. The owner has assisted me with a few of my builds without trying to sell me any parts. You can tell he is an LR Enthusiast and enjoys helping the Land Rover community with things like this. I would give them a call. Ask for Mike. He will be able to tell you whats going on over the phone and save you lots of headache. Trust.
