I know a couple with LD28's in them - why do they do that, so gutless and slow.

Cos they are easy to do I guess. Pretty reliable motors too, heaps better than the rubbish they came out with.

Rust and lack of room is why I got rid of mine, didn't have to touch the motor apart from oils and filters. Just done the bearings in the civillians gearbox as it only had 2nd gear second coming home home from the west coast on my last trip. 14 hrs from Franz, usually 6.

ok... CF owners, how many of you guys still wear the scears on ya shin from opening the doors, that bottom outer farking edge

Yeah, they were a curse, if I ever get another it is getting something like this done to it but without the chev motor.

RD28 is a far better engine, the LD you can hear rattling a mile away, once when i was meeting a neighbor for the first time, we were looking at
his variety of vehicles ...early landcruiser, suzuki gt750 complete with ape hangers etc then he shows me an xjs 6 jag, nice red one with the alloy
wheels and tan vinyl roof, at the very moment he turned the key to start it he said to me ''youll never guess whats in this'' well the first thing out of my
mouth was "ld28" couldnt mistake that cold echo lol...cheap to run i suppose, altho he reckoned it struggled to get up the titiokura on the
napier taupo road.

ive never owned a cf bedford, did have a late 70s transit though, 302 windsor powered, other that that it looked bog stock, one of my first
painting vans.

No idea why, but looking at those reminds me of how much I regret selling my ovlov 850 glt I'd really own another, mega comfy and a sexy motor. Reliable too
